The romance industry has profited on the fantasies of women for
centuries. However, as a new generation of women raised under the
guidance of second-wave feminists take up the reins of romance
production, romance novels and films have increasingly challenged
tired stereotypes labeling romantic stories as formulaic fodder.
This book examines how the romance genre serves women in multiple
ways, from escapism to sexual education, from fantasy to fun, and
most importantly, as a site of production for feminist texts.
