Janet Dailey Americana Series Romance Books Harlequin Entire Set 1-50 All States

Description: The holy grail of BOOK finds. An entire set 1-50 of Janet Dailey's Americana Romance Novels. Each novel is set in a different US State. *Source: Los Angeles TimesRomance novelist Janet Dailey, who went from secretary to bestselling author with millions of copies of her books sold worldwide. She wrote about 100 books in her lifetime, beginning with “No Quarter Asked,” which was published in 1974 by romance specialty house Harlequin Enterprises. By then, she and her husband, Bill — who she said was the model for the rugged men in her books — had taken early retirement and were traveling the country in a Silver Streak trailer. “I had always wanted to be a writer, but I didn’t have the vaguest notion of what to write about,” Dailey said in a 1981 Los Angeles Times interview. “Then I started reading romances.” By the time of the article, the extremely prolific Dailey had more than 50 books out, several of which had hit bestseller lists. In a Washington Post interview, she claimed to be able to write a novel in 16 days. Dailey wrote several themed series of books, including her “Americana” series of 50 novels with one set in each state. Her devotion to U.S. settings and themes was one of the keys to her success, Curtiss said. “Until Janet, the romances were English drawing room stories, very stylized and not very sexy,” he said. Indeed, Dailey was the first U.S. author published by the Canada-based Harlequin. “Janet’s books were much more muscular, with red-blooded males, and they had more explicit sex scenes.” The books show signs of being read at least once. They have been sealed in moving boxes for 40 years. On the inside cover, the original reader signed her name and dated when she read each book. Dearest Thelma Weyher - she read thousands or romance novels and I have them all to list. Pictures are actual. Book 12 looks to be read multiple times and has the most wear.
