"I believe in books and their power
to challenge, change and shape the human condition. I believe in
romance novels for their insistence that yes, there is happiness to
be found, even in a world as heartless and difficult as the one in
which we live."
"Ours is the only genre that has said not that sex is
important---everybody knows that. And not that love is
important---everybody knows that. Ours is the only genre that has
strongly, repeatedly and consistently said that women
are important. And not everybody knows that."
