Good god that art is horrid. xDD Ugh. As much of a romance fan as I am, somehow I don't think this is needed...PASS.

The art is an automatic turn off for me. I am not going to read this even if you pay me to.
If the art were better, I might consider it.

From the looks of that cover, it's not the best art in the world, but it's not THAT bad. (Read: YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY)
"Love for love's sake"? Surprising, considering that Harlequin's romance novels usually amount to cheesy porn.

No, it's really bad. A girl with 5 coats of mascara on and a guy's who's just frowning instead of looking broodingly sexy takes a major pass from me. And the classic Harlequin romances still recycling its romance plot formula from its 70s heyday equates to cheese, cheese, and lots of cheese, appealing to eat, but not read.

Now, if they'd just make it cheesy loli moe porn, then that'd fit just right in line with the rest of the manga industry.
