Thanks tech_au, but do you know what books they are? I had a look at the website that you posted, but it doesn't actually detail the books. Just curious, that's all...

I checked their ebook store at http://www.ebooks.eharlequin.com but there's no indication what they are going to be.
I suspect it may be 1 free ebook a week like in December rather than 16 all at once but you'll have to wait and see.

No problem! I misunderstood Sydney's Mom, when she said 'My Favourites' I assumed that she knew the book titles. NOW, I realise that she meant that the Genre (or something like that) were her favourites, and not the books themselves! hehe, the worse part of online communications, I guess...

Sometimes, the horses are different colors.

Seriously: Many of the same criticisms can be leveled at any genre - especially the type of reading YOU or I love.

Absolutely not!
Why, sometimes he's not wearing a shirt at all! And sometimes, it's a business jacket with no shirt underneath! Sometimes he has blonde hair, and sometims brown! And sometimes she's wearing a peasant blouse, and sometimes it's a modern shirt! Sometimes there's a fast car in the background, and sometimes it's a gothic house!

There's just oodles of differences in Harlequin romance covers & equal differences in the plots!

(I used to read a lot of them, and watched trends... there'd be a run of "sexy aloof English widowers needing a governess for his daughter," followed by "sexy South American guide to USian author/researcher" followed by "sexy Greek business tycoon seeking contract wife for social functions" and always, a recurring category of "sexy man from her childhood who returns to hometown with fortune and wants to [rekindle old flame/revenge himself on old enemies]." There are definite forumulaic plots, but they're not all the same. They are, however, all equally boring and unbelievable to people who don't care for them.)
