This Valentine’s Day, instead of the usual flowers and candy, how about giving your honey a romance novel, customized just for you two?
“Our special service is we will put you and your sweetheart in your very own personalized romance novel,” said Kathy Newbern, who started YourNovel with her husband Fletcher in 1992.
“Together, Fletcher and I have written 26, and we now have other writers, so we’re past 50 different titles now.”
You can choose from mild or wild, depending on how sexy you want it to be, and they’ll put your photo on the cover. Then it’s like a game of Mad Libs; they’ll fill in the blanks with things like your first and last names, your hair and eye colors, the perfume you wear, your favorite color of lingerie, what cars you drive, and what you do for work.
