Harlequin changes...
I wrote a quick article on the demise of the Harlequin Temptation and now, I hear the two romance lines from H/S are closing down as well. But talking with G this morning I realized something -- it isn't the death so much as a transformation. The old formula isn't working so well, they need to go with a new one! Instead of baby books, they need to push the whine of the urban 20/30/40 and 50? something. And in first person as well. ::sigh:: I'm too old for this, that is why fantasy/scifi is so appealing for my current reading.
So instead of reading last night, I went awandering through my book cases looking for some old favorite Temptations. Of course, I managed to get trapped by some of my old keepers -- mostly the Jayne Ann Krentz's like GHOST OF A CHANCE which I love!
So what do you think of the changes? Always difficult but on a bright note, change of blood means new stories and voices!

Well I've never been one for the Harlequin Romance series but I do enjoy the Silhouette Romance series. I had a sneaking suspicion this would happen a few months ago when I was talking to one of the authors for Silhouette Romance and she told me about their new editor who had lots of changes planned.
