This part was snort worthy: "Would this trend work in reverse? How about Madame Curie’s Main Squeeze, Amelia Earhart’s Arm Candy or Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Hottie."

When I'm lying awake at night, I'm usually struggling to plot out the next day's writing. But since you mentioned it, yes, ranchers and billionaires have been very hot in series romance for years. Hmm--maybe I should title my next romance novel The Billionaire Rancher Buys a Wife.
