Shoulders, Jawlines, and Pecs, Oh My! Beneath the Hero’s Surface & Giveaway

March 25, 2022 by Janine Rosche

Poor, poor men. They’re always being judged on their appearance, shape, and size instead of their personality. The pretty ones have it the worst because people assume they are all beauty and no brains. Just imagine how unappreciated romance heroes feel with their broad shoulders, thick hair perfect for a good hand rake, and ideal […]

Twelve Ways To Be an Awesome Launch Team Member

January 22, 2022 by Janine Rosche

I admit it. I was a terrible launch team member. At least, that’s what I thought. I always felt guilty that I wasn’t doing enough, no matter the author. Then, about two years ago, I transitioned from being a launch team member to having my own launch team. And my view of what it takes […]

Bad Girls in CCR

January 12, 2022 by Jaycee Weaver

There’s a lot of talk about bad boys in romance, even in Christian romance. Women love to read about bad boys and rebels, especially ones that turn good. But what about bad girls? From a Christian fiction author’s standpoint, bad girls are both tricky and a joy to write for many of the same reasons. […]

So You Think You Can Write

November 17, 2021 by Janine Rosche

I see you over there. You’ve dabbled, you’ve journaled, you’ve gotten lost in daydreams of a Michael B. Jordan-type professing his love to a Rachel McAdams-type. When you read books by Janine Rosche, you think “I could write just as well as this gal and I actually know where to put commas.” You have the […]

Something Wicked This Way Comes: Iconic Villains in Romance

October 16, 2021 by Janine Rosche

Villains. They’re the characters we love to hate in suspense, sci-fi, or mysteries. But occasionally, they appear in a romance and mess up things spectacularly for our heroes and heroines. They test our patience. They test our willingness to forgive. They test our ability to throw a book across a room. And yet, we recognize […]

Childhood Sweethearts (+giveaway)

Childhood Sweethearts + giveaway

What’s your favorite trope within CCR? I see this question asked a lot, and I have to admit I am one of those people who can’t choose a favorite ANYTHING to save her life. I mean, in all the breadth of the whole world, why would I limit myself? I do find myself drawn to […]

Public Display of Humiliation: Reader Edition PLUS Giveaway

September 16, 2021 by Janine Rosche

They made me do it. They were just so fantastic I had no choice but to obsess over them. With their compelling storylines, witty dialogue, and heart-achingly perfect heroes, I was doomed from the start. I’m talking about the books that lead to PDH: Public Displays of Humiliation. After sixteen years on social media, I’ve […]

Have You Heard the Rumor about Me?

August 20, 2021 by Janine Rosche

whisper

Perhaps you were fortunate enough to have seen the cautionary tale from VeggieTales about the Rumor Weed. If so, you know how quickly a small comment can grow into a monster, destroying people’s lives while singing a pretty catchy song (You’re singing it now, aren’t you?) If you haven’t seen it, well, my guess is […]

An Ideal Setting for Romance

June 22, 2021 by Janine Rosche

“This place should be in a book.” Readers, has this thought ever crossed your mind while wandering beautiful places? That was how I felt when I first visited Montana’s Madison River twenty years ago. Soaring mountains, wildlife sightings, pine-scented air, and bright blue sky simply screamed rustic romance! So, when I started writing and needed […]
