Thanks gothicromancereader for the website info. Great stuff!
I've been avoiding gothic romance published later than 1979, for the reason that I've heard publishers began putting the traditional cover on books that weren't true gothics because of high demand. Additionally, I'd like to avoid the gratious sex scenes that plague today's romances. Was the genre's Golden Era coming to a close by the close of the 1970's, or am I denying myself of a few more good books?
