Romance titles or please god why can't you practice safe sex?

This month's romance titles just catalogued...in which there are too many hyphens, doubtful grammar and way too many unexpected pregnancies.

Prince Charming of Harley Street

The pregnancy shock

The last Kolovsky playboy

Falco: the dark guardian

One night…nine-months scandal

Untouched until marriage

The secret Spanish love-child - this one worries me. The child wouldn't come out of the womb speaking Spanish and according to the blurb, the mother is not only plain, but British. So wouldn't the poor kid have British nationality?

Followed by the hysterical historical genre

More than a governess

Wicked captain, wayward wife

The Earl’s runaway bride

The synopsis for The pregnancy shock When his PA asked for extended leave, Greek billionaire Alexei Drakos was extremely inconvenienced. He relied on Billie Foster for everything – running his life, even getting rid of his girlfriends. Little did Alexei know that Billie had left to have his baby! In fact, he didn’t even remember their passionate night and he had no idea she was pregnant!

With Billie gone, there was something missing in Alexei’s glittering existence. When she returned, he needed to offer her something special to make her stay…like a wedding ring of convenience…?

I agree there is no logic behind a lot of romance titles - perhaps it's a case of not only do not judge a book by its cover, do not judge it by its title, either!

Also, Falco the Dark Guardian? Is the byline "Rock me, Amadeus!" included on that book? XD

'The pregnancy shock' = 'Two weeks' notice', near enough.

'More than a governess' = NANNY MCPHEE!

'Untouched until marriage' = eye-roll. Wish this was the fella, but I'm not holding my breath. And completely untouched, literally? Oh, please!
