Do you want the love and action to happen right away or have a build up in romances?

Last Wednesday, I asked you to give me some feedback for what kind of romance you’d liked to see in my books. This was a pretty informal poll, but it is a question I was curious about. It was a small sample of responses (41) but here’s the question and how you answered.

Do you want the love and action to happen right away or have a build up in romance novels?

I like characters to have a good back story
and to develop throughout the book.
61%
I love a slow burn full of lots of sexual tension.
58.5%
Put the romance back in the romance books.
I’m kind of over books that have couples having
sex when they first meet. Give me a great
build up with the couple getting to know
each other. 
51.2%
I like to get to know the character, but I
don’t want to wait any longer than
five chapters for the relationship to start.

46.3%
I prefer for characters to NOT fall into
bed in chapter one.
