I don't read a lot of romance but... ...I rather like Sandra Brown. I don't know if these are as good as her newer books, with complex plotting and good character development, but the writing should be similar. She has a few set in Texas:Texas!

Then Sage's family business, the Tyler Drilling Company, came under the threat of ruin, and Sage and Harlan suddenly found themselves fighting side by side to save it... in quarters too close to keep passion at bay.

Trying to think of the name of a book. I can only use 120 letters? If anyone reads scifi/romance books, please help.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
