Anyone who’s never read a so-called Romance Novel knows the standard cliché assumptions about what they’re all like.
Supposedly written by gushy, middle-aged, female authors in a highly romantic, sentimental, “True Confession” tone. Stories designed to entertain audiences overflowing with bored and frustrated housewives. Who may even have “jobs,” but certainly not “Serious Careers.” Featuring a Main Character who’s a bright, proactive, average-looking Woman telling the story in the first person. A tale about the trials and tribulations she suffers while trying to find herself a Decent Man among all the scumbags who seem to populate her world.
