I may sound dumb. But I really want to know about Mills & Boons. What themes of stories does those books has? How are hero and heroines are shown commonly in those books? I have heard that the hero and heroines are shown like that of some Indian TV serials where the hero is jerk while the heroine is naive. Is it true? Please, lemme me know more about it😊.

Mills & Boons is a publishing company which mainly focuses on the genre of romance. They have both modern as well as historical love stories. It's been a really long time since I read a M&B book but yeah it's stories generally have either dark & brooding or suave casanova heroes, and innocent & naive or spirited bubbly heroines. So yeah quite like our Indian shows 😊

Who is the author of these books?

Looks like Four Lions take ideas for their shows from these books only.

Anyone can write them. If you have a story (of the romance kind) and they think it's good they'll publish it. More than the authors it's the Publishing House which is well-known for them. Quite like Indian shows where you only remember/know the PH and not the actual writers or directors

There are a lot of different Mills and Boon genres. You can have your contemporary modern books which usually feature tall, dark and handsome and extremely rich heroes who are paired with a variety of different types of heroines from the innocent pure stay at home types, to modern independently wealthy women. These are the books that are commonly viewed and disparaged as mills and boons.

You also have historical romance, paranormal romance, tender romance, clean christian romance, medical romance.

www.millsandboon.co.uk is the best place to check out the different books.
