The Princess and the Wolf

Looks like Latour and Peter Erdélyi and I already have SOME COMPETITION FOR OUR BOOK.

“Two Worlds, One Heart

Married by proxy to a European prince she doesn’t love, the princess Sierra will not believe her husband died in far-off America — and crosses an ocean to discover the truth. But the determined royal lady will need a scout in this wild new land, and she must put her mission and her life in the hands of High Wolf, the proud Cheyenne brave she once loved with all her heart…and should rightly have wed.

Years earlier High Wolf learned much as guest in a European court — until a woman’s treachery sent him home with his spirit sore but unbroken. Now the regal beauty who deceived him has come to ask his help and his desire is enflamed anew. Honor demands that he lead the princess on her journey. But every moment in her company is rekindling a passion that must not be. And surrendering to a forbidden love could be the gravest peril that lies before them.”

A literary question here… One could argue that Chandler and Hammett turned pulp detective fiction into high literature, with Lovecraft doing the same for sci-fi/horror. Who is the best example of turning pulp romance into high literature? There have to be some good examples, I just can’t think of any at the moment. Jane Austen is too far above pulp for it to be an issue, I think.
