How can you write true passion if you’ve never experienced it? The Love Factory, the new novel by Elaine Proctor
More about the book!
The Love Factory by Elaine Proctor is out in April from Jonathan Ball Publishers.
A smart, sexy, witty novel about love and desire, and how losing everything can sometimes be the best thing that ever happened to you.
When Anna turns to writing erotica to pay the bills after her husband loses his job, she faces an uncomfortable realisation: she doesn’t know how to, because she doesn’t actually know what desire is. And how can you write passion if you’ve never experienced it?
