Synopsis

Alright, we all say we don't read them.

But we do.

Every now and then, we sneak one, just to be able to say how terrible they are.

They're Romance Novels, and they're everywhere!

And this spoof of the satin-and-lace literature industry will keep your audiences in hysterics.

Valentina Velour, the Queen of Romance Fiction, opens Honeymoon House to a television program.

Unfortunately, someone has left a dead man in the closet and a wacko called The Rose Killer is bumping off the love scribblers.

Confusion and madness abound as vitamin fanatics, cops, literary agents and writers collide.

The whole madcap mess concludes with the exposure of Valencia's arch-enemy and an affirmation of her philosophy - "Romance will be here when men and women no longer walk the earth!"
