A book about anything you like girls. If you like romance then i,ll put some (or a lot) of that in. You like reading about sex? then i,ll put some of that in as well. What about the hero? Tall, Good looking, with a little scar on his cheek? And the villian, dark brooding, very wealthy big house, all that lot. Unmarried girl doing a runner from her boyfriend? Lots of sad bits, happy/sad ending, Come on you girls give me some ideas and i might even include you.

Are you a writer for Mills & Boons? You should be in the kiddies section.

What genre are you focusing on? Is it going to be labeled a romance novel, a novella, a fantasy, what?
I would like to see a strong woman, emotionally strong is what I mean, who is the heroine. Forget the handsome hero, make the male lead a great guy who respects women, has a brain and integrity. No sex necessary, a good writer doesn't write explicitly, they can imply how much in love the characters are using good writing. And, I want a happy ending, Lord knows we need more happy endings these days. BTW, that doesn't mean they need to get married and have a couple of little kids. It can be that the heroine realizes her destiny in life is to go to Africa and help with the many AIDS patients and be content with her life. I hate when the woman is happy only when she gets the guy...not reality.

A book for the woman folk you say?
Make sure its got lots of pictures of celebrities armpit hair, some story about the menopause and no point to it whatsoever.
Thats what I see most women reading

Learn to write properly first, you have some punctuation issues, and set your keyboard to English if your language doesn't use apostrophes. Sorry, I'm an English teacher. I'll proof-read your book for a small fee though ;)))

Don't forget lots of moody scenery , moors, sandbanks, torrents of water.
Must have strong Gothic influence, storms and bodice ripping and if I am going to be in it, can you make me 25 , drop dead gorgeous in a moody tragic Gothic way and of course able to run across the moors in a storm , with my hair tumbling about my shoulders as the wind rips my cloak to shreds...?

Your spelling isn't that bad come on. Make it rally sad at the end. Make the hero live in a cardboard box.

How about write what you think is good and then see what publishers think.
Targeting an audience is stupid as you might not be able to write what that audience wants.
And the fact you are asking for ideas shows you have no idea at all what your target audience is.

I'm a bit of geek when it comes to reading books! I like fantasy stories about magic and wizards and true love.
