I’ve noticed a growing trend where TV series producers or showrunners dip into the world of romance novels, but it’s not common for their books to debut before their TV projects. Usually, their novels gain attention after their TV work becomes popular. For example, 'Bridgerton' was a book series by Julia Quinn long before Shonda Rhimes adapted it into a hit show. The producers’ novels often feel like extensions of their screenwriting—packed with dialogue-driven plots and cinematic pacing.

However, some producers do release novels as passion projects, but they rarely overshadow their TV work initially. Take 'The Selection' by Kiera Cass, who worked in TV production before writing. Her book gained traction independently, but the TV adaptation buzz came later. It’s more about leveraging their storytelling skills across mediums rather than prioritizing one over the other. The romance novel market is fiercely competitive, and even with a producer’s clout, building a reader base takes time.

From what I’ve seen, TV producers who write romance novels usually do it as a side gig, and their books don’t typically drop before their TV shows. Their novels often feel like they’re written with adaptation in mind—fast-paced, heavy on banter, and visually vivid. For instance, 'You' by Caroline Kepnes was a book first, but Greg Berlanti’s involvement in the series came after its success. Producers seem to use novels as testing grounds for ideas that might later become shows. It’s rare for their books to hit shelves before their TV projects take off, unless they’re already established authors. The crossover appeal is there, but the timing usually favors their primary medium.

Romance novels by TV producers usually follow their TV success, not precede it. Their books often read like scripts—tight dialogue, clear visual scenes. 'The Hating Game' by Sally Thorne wasn’t written by a producer, but its adaptation feels like something a TV insider would craft. Producers’ novels tend to be secondary to their screen careers, though some, like Ryan Murphy’s hinted projects, could blur lines if they ever materialize.

I’ve dug into this a bit, and it’s fascinating how TV producers approach romance novels. Most don’t lead with books; their novels are either passion projects or late-career pivots. For example, 'Firefly Lane' by Kristin Hannah got a Netflix adaptation, but Hannah wasn’t a producer first. When producers do write, their books often mirror TV pacing—think short chapters, cliffhangers. But the book rarely comes first. Even mega-producers like Shonda Rhimes build their brands through TV, then explore books as expansions, not starting points.

TV producers who write romance novels usually do so after making a name in television. Their books often feel cinematic, with snappy dialogue and clear scene breaks. 'One Day' by David Nicholls is a great example—written by someone with screenwriting experience, it reads like a film. But the book came before any TV ties. Producers’ novels are usually add-ons to their main work, not the other way around.
