Boring heroines are, in my opinion, the most common romance mistake. We loathe hanging out with women who define themselves purely through their relationships... why would we want to read about them?  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Here’s the thing about romance novels: The moment when the hero and heroine discover that they’re perfect for each other is often the moment when it’s them against the world.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) I think we can all agree that Colin Firth falls into the George Clooney category of ‘Men Who Age Like Fine Wine.’  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Even in 2014, when romance heroes are as varied as their genre, somewhere in them you can still always find the alpha male.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) And... as long as they need me, it’s easier to forget that I am alone.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) ..he wanted her. And at another time, as another man, he would have her. Without hesitation. As lover. . . as more.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) As a romance novelist, I have a rather skewed view of babies. You see, they don’t typically fit into the classic structure of the romance novel - romance is about two people finding each other and falling in love against insurmountable odds. Babies... well... babies are complicated.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Perhaps summer’s ephemeral nature is what inspires us to embrace the beach read. We tell ourselves that these twisted plots and wild characters are literary ice cream sundaes - extravagant treats that aren’t as calorie-laden when we’re wearing flip flops.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) When I feel hurt, I fully experience my emotions (and don’t make them anyone else’s problem!). Then I question my thoughts, examining my belief system and meeting the reality of life.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) The best partnerships aren’t dependent on a mere common goal but on a shared path of equality, desire, and no small amount of passion.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) For the most part, my characters don’t talk to me. I like to lord over them like some kind of benevolent deity. And, for the most part, my characters go along with it. I write intense character sketches and long, play-like conversations between me and them, but they stay out of the book writing itself.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) But she had dreamed of being his for too long. He had quite ruined her for a marriage of convenience. She wanted everything from him: his mind, his body, his name and, most of all, his heart  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) No matter how troubled a character’s history, romance novels tell us, love can be built upon it, and happily-ever-after can result. What’s more, the darker the past, the brighter the future - and the better the read.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Of all the myriad ways we define love, there is perhaps none more honest and powerful than this: Great love is rooted in great partnership.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) I think back on that day when 16-year-old me scribbled on some silly piece of paper for some long-forgotten high school career-day project that my dream job was ‘romance novelist.’  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) When it comes to love, the English language bears no shortage of cliches  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Teenagers are asking, ‘Who am I?’ and ‘How do I fit in?’ in every aspect of their lives, and the best YA romances appreciate that there is more to a teen’s life than finding love.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) That first meeting - the one where the hero and heroine start the slow burn that takes the whole story to turn into true love - is the single most important part of the whole book. Nail it, and you’ve won yourself readers.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) The trick to great romance is in overcoming adversity. In realizing that love is worth some uphill climbs.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) No doubt, much of the joy of a great romance is the moment when these stoic heroes crack open and reveal themselves to their heroines - the only women strong enough to match them.  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) One of the most common criticisms of romance is that the genre is too prescribed: If every romance novel ends happily ever after, don’t the stories lack complexity? Don’t the readers get bored?  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) I, for one, have no interest at all in having my heart stolen  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) I do not traditionally speak ill of women, but your governess is a cabbagehead  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Men are not nearly as evolved as women are, nor as intelligent, evidently  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Kisses should not leave you satisfied  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) It was a terrifying feeling. And if it was love, he wanted none of it  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) If I am an empress, he is the only man worthy of being my emperor  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Sometimes, love was not enough  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) She was all he wanted. He would give everything for her. Without thought. Without regret  (Sarah MacLean Quotes) Why couldn’t someone, somewhere, want her for her?  (Sarah MacLean Quotes)
