Gallen Books

In the early 1980s, books packager Richard Gallen published an short-lived imprint of modern, sensual romances with Pocket Books called Gallen Books. These novels, while ostensibly competing with offerings from Pocket Books's own Silhouette imprint and those of Harlequin, not to mention imprints such as Candlelight and Second Chance At Love, were longer and more immediately sexual. They were also distinguished by their artful covers. Jude Deveraux wrote her first novels for the imprint.
