Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts is not merely the romance novel genre's best-loved author -- she is a publishing phenomenon. Roberts has over 200 works in print, from novellas written during her category romance days (beginning with Irish Thoroughbred in the 1980s) to mainstream mystery/romance novels (High Noon, Blue Smoke, Black Hills) to lighthearted pure romance (the Brides quartet) to a Twenty Minutes Into the Future straight-up mystery series (...InDeath, writing as J.D. Robb).

Her name has become synonymous with romance at its finest, and most women have at least heard about her.
