Amish romance novels

A very interesting counterpoint to the trashy Harlequin novels that lines bookstores nationwide is the emergence of the genre of Amish romance novels as a viable alternative.  These books do not contain the sexual exploits founds in their trashier cousins, but instead depict religious courtship and modesty as the upheld virtues.  Christianity Today has some thoughts on these books, and NPR also discusses this phenomenon.
