Mills and Boon's only male writer
Roger Sanderson has enjoyed enormous success writing romance for the past six years.
It is estimated he has one and a quarter millions books in print around the world, and has been translated into 17 languages. His output is phenomenal at four books a year.
But you would never knowingly buy one of his books because he has to write under a female pseudonym. He is currently the only male writer published by Mills and Boon, specialising in Medical Romance and writes under the name Gill Sanderson.
Unlike many of the Grand Dames of romance - Roger is most likely to be found sinking a pint at the local Rugby Club when he's not writing. His early career was spent penning war stories, a far cry for the quivering Mills and Boon heroines and their obligatory dashing heroes.
Jo Morris went to Liverpool to meet the unlikely man of romantic fiction.
