So I was over at Carla Swafford's blog and she posted a very good blog today. It's about romance novels and what they really are. I know a lot of people see them as sex books, or porn for women as a certain friend of mine likes to say, but they're not, and I've been trying to explain it, but couldn't find the right words...well Carla did! Here's the best part...
" Romance is the best part of the books I love to read. The emotions, the way the man and woman become attached to each other. The need to be closer, to connect, even if it is only to hold hands. Or maybe they can't touch, can't be together. The hunger in their eyes, the wary glance, the need to hear a voice or brush shoulders. The gentleness in their tone when they say that special someone's name. The tremor in their fingers when they finally touch for the first time. The way they sacrifice a part of themselves to be together."
