Seriously?

The only books I’ve read where the heroine is actually the rescuer, is La Nora’s In Death series. One of the reasons I think Eve Dallas resonates with so many readers, is because she is so unlike the traditional romance heroine. So why can’t there be more Eve Dallas-type heroines in Romanceland?

It annoys the heck out of me when the heroine is a cop, and she’s the one who is ultimately rescued by the hero, who is not a cop. What is up with that?

Do we romance readers always need our heroines to be rescued by the hero?
