Charlotte Lamb Boeken
Sheila Holland was een revolutionair op het gebied van romantische fictie. Als een van de eerste auteurs die de grenzen van seksueel verlangen verkende, weerspiegelden haar romans vaak het voorhoede van de 'seksuele revolutie' van de jaren '70. Haar boeken raakten destijds taboe-onderwerpen aan zoals kindermisbruik en verkrachting, en ze creëerde heldinnen die seksueel zelfverzekerd, zelfs dominant waren. Ze was ook een van de eersten die een moderne romantische heldin creëerde: onafhankelijk, imperfect en perfect in staat om een seksuele of romantische relatie aan te gaan. Als productief auteur schreef ze meer dan 160 romans, de meeste voor Mills & Boon.
