Calling all romance readers! 

Whether your heart races for dashing dukes, star-crossed spies, or lovers among the stars, this special event is for you. Join beloved Harlequin Historical Romance author Diane Gaston, along with fellow romance storytellers Meg Napier (Contemporary Romantic Suspense), Karla Kratovil (Regency/Victorian Historical Romance), and Nicole E. Kelleher (Paranormal/Fantasy Romance), as they explore how timeless romance tropes-like enemies-to-lovers, forbidden love, and second chances-sweep us away across sub-genres.

Discover what makes romance novels so irresistible, meet the authors behind the passion, and get a chance to win a bookish gift basket from each writer!
