The Art of Romance: Harlequin Mills & Boon Cover Designs

Founded in 1908 the now legendary Mills & Boon created romantic heroes and heroines that reflected every decade: the dark and rugged sheikh-doctor-widower-businessman who meets the young, attractive girl-next-door-secretary-careerwoman. The winning formula rarely changed, and today a Mills & Boon book is sold in the UK every three seconds, with Harlequin selling more than four books per second globally in 26 languages. This unique collection of book covers offers a fascinating visual record of how our perceptions of romance, love and drama have evolved over the years, and presents a treasure-trove of inspiration for designers and artists, as well as anyone working in advertising, film or fashion.
