Romance novels comprise a billion-dollar-a-year industry making it one of, it not the most, profitable genres. I specifically use this phrasing because the Romance Genre has been the best-selling genre in the past and currently (in 2019) ranks as the second most profitable genre. In her book, How to Write Wildly Popular Romances, writer Adrienne deWolfe states that Harlequin Romance “sells four books per second, half of them internationally.” Four books per one second is an incredible statistic. Due to the monetary success of the Romance Genre it is clear that there is a substantial interest in these novels from readers. The question then becomes who is purchasing these books and why? What motivates readers to spend such a frequent amount of time and money?
