What Genre Would Your Romance Take Place In?

That dashing stranger you keep running into might have you suspicious if they weren’t so cute… You adore a good mystery and your romantic life is no different! You love hearing stories about your mystery man’s past and the chemistry between you two would make Ned and Nancy blush! In the sequel to FEUDS, TORN, Davis thinks Cole is dead, and is trapped in a facility searching for a cure for people infected with a potentially fatal virus—people like her. But when she uncovers a conspiracy in the facility to keep people sick, Davis partners with a new friend, Mercer, to escape and seek a cure out themselves.

The blood-red message on your locker door? The brooding kid in your class? Both leave shivers down your back! Sure, it may not be for everyone---but you live for a little thrill! You’re no damsel in distress and you’re about to meet your match...but beware... your romance is filled with as much suspense as a Hitchcock flick. In TORN, Davis is stuck in the perfect setting for a horror film: a run-down medical facility, with a creepy doctor that pays a little too much attention to her. When she decides to flee for her life, the book gets practically screamworthy.

Ripped bodice is a total cliche… unless it’s happening to you, of course! Whether it’s an upstairs/downstairs romance straight out of a Jane Austen novel or a epic battle among star-crossed lovers, you can’t wait to get lost in a completely different world! Your suitor is a classic gentleman, who proves that chivalry isn’t dead. Your romance is destined for stolen kisses, steamy love letters, and some top-notch costuming. The romance in FEUDS is enough to make any historical romance fan swoon—a young couple from different worlds, forced apart by society? Sounds almost Austen-esque!

The future may seem bright, but in a society all about order and structure, you’ll need a romance that breaks all the rules. You and your lover challenge each other constantly, which is what makes the romance completely electric! TORN by Avery Hastings has all of your sci-fi faves: genetically manipulated babies, a world where genetic advancement is what characterizes society, and of course, a flaw in that system that's causing the higher class of genetically modified people to get sick. When Davis contracts the Narxis virus and realizes the government is trying to stop a cure from being found, she'll risk her life to end the conspiracy.

The future’s not looking so hot… or is it? When your world is crumbling, you can’t help but fall for someone who’s willing to fight for you. Your love interest is strong and sexy, but it’s their moral compass that really makes your heart pound. Together, you’re unstoppable, fearless, and ...sure, maybe a little reckless… but for you romance is best with a touch of danger! If you're looking for your next dystopian read, try the FEUDS series! There are two factions: The Priors, and the Gens. The Priors are the ones with privilege and class, and the Gens are outcasts. But when Davis, a Prior, falls in love with Cole, a Gen, their love will set events into motion that will overthrow the entire system—and risk their lives in the process.

Aren’t the best love stories are the real ones? The only thing magical you want in your life is love. Your meet-cute is destined to be sweet and simple, with off-the-walls chemistry. Your romance belongs in a summer beach read or a romantic school story. Even though TORN isn't the sweet, contemporary romance you might find yourself wandering in, there are definitely some themes that cross all genres, like friendship, compassion, courage and tolerance...and Avery Hastings' books have those in spades!)

A little touch of magic goes a long way… You were always destined to be a bit of a trouble-maker in love. But don’t fret--It’s more fun! Your love interest is patient and good-humored, a perfect compliment with your taste for adventure. Davis and Cole in the FEUDS series go on adventure after adventure—from risking it all for their love in FEUDS to Cole deciding to compete in the Olympiads in TORN, there's heart-stopping, breathtaking action page after page.
