'''Robin Schone''''s works have been important in developing the [[Erotic_Romance|erotic romance]] genre. She is known for incorporating frank sexuality as an integral part of the characters' self-discovery and the development of the romance. For example, her first published novel (''[[Awaken, My Love]]'', 1995) opens with the 39-year-old heroine literally changing her world through masturbation.

Schone's direct treatment of aging and sexuality remains unusual within the romance genre. Her 2000 novella "A Man and a Woman" features a 48-year-old widow and a 53-year-old eunuch. Her 2007 novel ''[[Scandalous Lovers]]'' stars a 49-year-old, menopausal widow and a 47-year-old widower.

== Biography ==
Schone studied art, classics, and world religion at Rockford College in Rockford, Illinois. She met her husband, Don, on their first day of university, and they married a few months later, in June 1975.
