And this is news HOW???
Romance Novels Growing Steamier
"Graphic sex talk has ignited sales. Major publishers are introducing new, spicier romance lines. Even harlequin is getting into the game. “Romance is getting younger and younger audience, and they are looking for stories that push the edge a little bit, that pushes the boundaries.” Authors and publishers are quick to point out that this is not porn, that these sexy tales have romance and a story as well."
Since I remember a friend of mine that worked at a romance book store calling them "Soft-core porn" years ago, I just wonder what's this "growing steamier" stuff? They've been pretty racy for a LONG time now.
