A so called Box Set of 5-10 books that has 600 pages.

I don't mind the mention of a rogue, many fantasy books have it too. Billionaire is an instant turn-off, as are bare-chested men on the covers (a sure sign of a romance novel). While I occasionally read romances, I don't like the ones where all the chemistry is based on pure physical lust. So the books with naked men on their covers are out.
Books under 200 pages (that goes for individual books) will not be bought by me.
