Welcome to SPL’s Romance Restaurant! On our menu you’ll find many different flavors of romance: historical, contemporary, urban, inspirational, suspenseful, paranormal, and more. For this month’s special, we’re serving up romance in three levels of spiciness. Here’s a preview of our tasty offerings.
Mild and Romantic
Whether sweet, inspirational, or humorous, these romances have one thing in common: they focus on love and relationships rather than sexuality.
If you enjoy your romances mild, you may like the flavor of Betty Neels, Georgette Heyer, Barbara Cartland or Christian fiction author Jacquelin Thomas.

Sensual and Saucy
These stories may include some explicit sex and sensuality as the characters’ romance unfolds. 
Jayne Ann Krentz (who also writes historical romances as Amanda Quick and science fiction romances as Jayne Castle) may be to your taste. For humor, try Jennifer Crusie or MaryJanice Davidson (who also writes paranormal romance.) If you like your romance seasoned with cowboys and open skies, Diana Palmer might appeal.
