80's Romance Novel Covers Novels & Stories

I scanned the shelves, my eyes tracing the titles and covers in search of the perfect book to momentarily distract me from the reality of my mother's illness. A vibrant book cover caught my attention, a beautiful couple locked in a passionate embrace against a backdrop of rolling hills and a setting sun. "Love's Everlasting Promise" was emblazoned across the top in elegant script. I knew, in that moment, that this was the book that would temporarily fill the void in my heart.

~IVY~ It's another day in the library and Roxie is pretending to read about the anatomy of werewolves while I think of the Ebon Testament. I eye the cover of the book warily. “You know, if you keep using that book cover for all your erotic novels, someone is bound to suspect something.” With her face entirely hidden by the book, Roxie asks, “And how will they notice?” “Won't it be strange that you've been reading one book for straight three weeks?” I ask. “A werewolf anatomy book nonetheless. You should change the covers.”

Alone, she exuded the grace of a noble. Alongside her actions, the title on the book cover became clear, presenting itself to them. "Soil Analysis." … Wait, who urgently came to fight carrying a book? The seriousness of the title, coupled with her elegant demeanor, gave the impression that she should be discussing the book at an academic forum rather than forcefully slamming it on someone. The lead thug widened his eyes. Observing the stark contrast in Hannah's eyes, she decisively brought down the thick book's corner onto Jadon's head.

It's a novel, one that isn't part of her literature class and the title- 'One night with the playboy' "A night with the casa nova?! Seriously?" She jolted but quickly recovered and looked at me with a shy smile as she closed the novel, bookmarking it with her pen. God! Whatever that story is about clearly isn't age appropriate and what sort of story cover is that? Shouldn't stuff like that be censored? More importantly, how on earth did she get those sneaky little hands of hers on that? I did see a familiar signature on the left top side but where have I seen it before?... oh, now I remember, it's Lisa's.

He picked it up, eyes scanning the pages under the moonlight. The words hit him hard: “The detective slammed me against the bookshelf, his thick fingers plunging into my dripping cunt while his other hand choked my throat…” A soft voice came from behind him. “Still breaking the rules after all these years, Kane?” Kane spun around. Vera stood in the doorway wearing nothing but a thin black silk robe, she lit a cigarette with steady hands, the flame lighting up her piercing green eyes. “You…” Kane narrowed his eyes. Something about her felt familiar, but the memory stayed just out of reach.

"I've read that book. It's so good. You should totally check it out." I glanced at the cover, and mentally rolled my eyes. Of course I would grab some pirate romance novel. "Yeah, thanks," I said. She pushed her glasses up her nose, and scooted in beside me. "If you like that one, you'll love this one," she said, while I watched Ansley through the glass talking to Professor Heckles. She shoved some book in my face with a half-naked guy on the cover. "Yeah, I'll check this one out, too," I said, placing it under my arm.

He was about to pull away when things were getting pretty intense but she pleaded. “Don’t stop Ronald, I want you....” Raina pulled away from the kiss and let go of her robe. Ronald’s jaw was literally on the carpet. He couldn’t believe what he was looking at. Raina was in red sexy lingerie which enhanced her well-defined bump. Ronald could feel himself getting hard, he was sure a cold shower couldn’t cure his erection this time around. He wanted her so bad. “This is the best birthday gift, my love, I promise to be as gentle as I can.” He lifted her in a bridal style, ready to make love to the Queen of his Heart. The End.........

“But someone online recommended a dark romance book and I really want to check it out.” My eyes scanned the shelves, my gaze snagging on a particularly striking cover. It was dark, almost black, with the title splashed across it in stark blood-red letters. “Dark Temptation,” I read aloud, picking up the book. “Is this it?” Pauline leaned in, narrowing her gaze at the cover. “Huh. I’ve seen that one online. It’s pretty popular, actually.” She paused, then shook her head. “But no. I couldn’t read that.”

“She’ll probably spend the whole holiday in here if you let her.” I walked the aisles slowly, trailing my fingers over the books. Classics. Thrillers. A whole section of contemporary romance—Mirabel’s doing, mostly. She’d started collecting them in high school, said they were “escapist but smart.” I’d never read them. Too many happy endings. Too much hope wrapped in pretty words. I pulled one down at random. Dark cover, brooding man in a suit, and title written in gold foil: Claimed by the Billionaire. I snorted softly, then slid it back.
