I've discovered that most high school students interested in reading
romances are already reading the adult romances. The younger students,
grades 6-9 are the ones most likely to pick up something like Sweet Valley
High or Clearwater Creek (I think this is the title of the series).

If you want to provide romances that aren't quite as juvenile as these
series yet aren't too graphic, try Dee Henderson, Julie Garwood, Robin
Jones Gunn, Robin Lee Hatcher, Jane Peart, Tracie Phillips.

Another way to decide what to purchase would be to list a few series/titles
and ask students to pick what they would like to see in the library.
