All I Need to Know in Life I Learned From Romance Novels is the ultimate companion for romance novel loyalists. Johnson's lessons on love, culled from many years as a romance reader, are accompanied by quotes and examples from popular novels, along with words from the authors themselves on why they love what they do.

And their trials and tribulations on the road to "happily ever after" aren't all that different from those of ordinary people.
