💕 Happy International Women's Day 💕 Today we are celebrating the life of superstar romance author Johanna Lindsey born on March 10, 1952 (deceased 2019). Prolific and influential Lindsey wrote more than 60 novels, beginning with CAPTIVE BRIDE in 1977. Along with Rosemary Rogers and Kathleen Woodiwiss she was called one of the queens of romance. Her novels sold more than 60 million copies worldwide, with many of Lindsey's novels topping The New York Times bestseller list. "Johanna Lindsey was one of the most powerful voices of the romance genre, and at a critically important time," best-selling author Sarah MacLean said in an exclusive statement to Entertainment Weekly. "As the women's movement revolutionized homes and workplaces in the late '80s and early '90s, Johanna's strong, feminist heroines were revolutionaries in their own right — fighting for partnership, respect, and happily ever after. These were heroines who captained their own fate…they lived fearlessly, fought passionately, and loved with abandon…and they inspired millions of us to do the same."
