Bob's readership would only pick up his latest work and then the nerd rage would begin.

Nora Roberts writes romance. But she also has her
In Death series which she writes as J. D. Robb. We do know it's Nora who writes it. And that's fine. That's actually a good thing. It means if you get a Nora Roberts book, you'll get romance and if you get J. D. Robb, you'll get murder mysteries with a little romance tossed in.
