"Welcome to the wonderful world of Sara Ranchouse Romances! Interesting, informative and entertaining, each Sara Ranchouse Romance disassembles an existing love story and puts it back together again. We aim to redefine the boundaries of real people facing real love situations -- and you, as a reader, become part of the process.
For example, this story recycles the titles of existing romance novels into brand new love poems. And an appendix of all the titles is included at the back of the book for your own pleasure!"--inside cover
"The romance novel stood along, forgotten on a separate shelf, resigned to a studied appearance of singular, autonomous text. It seemed there was no hope of reviving her timeworn story.
Then, unexpectedly, a timid hand appeared to reposition first one book, and then another. Fate had finally arrived to give the romance novel a new place in life, to forge unforeseen alliances."--back cover
