What was love really like in the 1970s? Women were marching forward in the Women’s Movement, “bringing home the bacon, ” exercising their newfound sexual freedom, and still searching for true love. Introducing, Bedroom Roulette, the latest book in the Tru LOVE Collection series, guest edited by romance book expert Ron Hogan.
Bedroom Roulette is a collection of 13 love stories focused on the changing lives, loves and careers of women in the ‘70s. It’s hard to resist these tantalizing tales with titles like:
· “Bedroom Roulette – The Game Suburban Housewives Play”
· “We Joined Our Teenage Daughter at a Free-Love Farm”
· “The Night My Husband Demanded an Orgy”
· “Why Not? We Used To Be Married”
Hogan provides a revealing look at various kinds of love stories from the early 1970s in America. Topics that were previously taboo were now being discussed in “polite” society. The sexual revolution was in full swing and the feminist movement was taking hold. Pop culture is alive and well in Bedroom Roulette as it gives readers a “fly on the wall” peek at a pivotal moment in American cultural history. Many of the stories included in this Tru LOVE Collection will surprise—and possibly shock–the reader.
