So they creating series out of what was more like collections just to mess with my OCD.
While Silhouette had Man of the Month in the Silhouette Desire line, American Hero in the Intimate Moments line, etc. I don't think of those as actual series. And back in the day not all truly related books were even labeled as such. And many that were (with the asterisks and odd symbols on the list in the front of the book) were not given series names.

FWIW, I labeled Don’t Fence Me In/Sail Away as "Cambell Cousins" in Calibre. I will label Perchance to Dream/Lightning Strikes as "Thorne Siblings" when the time comes. (Yes, I have no imagination for thinking up these things )

But this so-called series can't be blamed on Harlequin/Silhouette as the author is self-publishing them through ePublishing Works! I think labeling them as "Korbel Classic Romance Humorous Series" is just a way to differentiate the books from the medical suspense she first wrote as Eileen Dreyer as well as her most recent historicals. Also the series name lets people know these books are not recent contemporaries, but set during the 80s/90s. Personally, I am so grateful she decided to leave the text alone and not update/revise them! I am not a fan of authors doing that.
