| Re: For young women only?
For what it's worth, I'll mention that I've got five books by McCaffrey that were published as fiction (not SFF) in the seventies and eighties--two books published by Tor, two by Ace, and one by Ballantine. Each book clearly fits the mold of a romance novel, albeit without sex scenes (unless I'm misremembering the absence of sex scenes--it's been a long time since I read the books). The two Ace books have cover blurbs that say "Terror stalks Nialla Dunn--even in the circle of her lover's powerful embrace" and "Was he her protector, her lover . . . or her deadly enemy?"
The titles:
Ring of Fear
Stitch in Snow
The Year of the Lucy
The Mark of Merlin
