This book is a response to a call from prominent scholars in the field for further studies of men and masculinities in popular romance.
Rather than discussing the romance genre as a whole, the book adds to the growing interest and broadens the scholarly conversation in popular romance studies by focusing on a specific subgenre.
It could be useful for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Literature/English; Cultural Studies; Women's, Gender, and/or Sexuality Studies.
Suitable for the avid romance reader who is interested in the construction of the male character of popular romance novels.
