Given out for more than sixty years,
A prize for the best of romantic fiction.
Awarded to authors by their peers,
Intended to improve the genre’s depiction.


47) al.vick : #7 wasn't the award I thought it was. Google that kind of award and keep looking.

51) Foretopman : For #7, "sixty years" clearly lines up with the RoNA of the Romantic Novelists Association but I've tried every tag and CK Award variation of those that I can think of. What am I missing?

53) Zoes_Human: >51 Foretopman: For #7 I went to the book for the most recent winner and scrolled down to the main page awards listing and clicked on it there.

65) AnnieMod : It is not the American one

162) Yamanekotei : It’s an award from the “love story” association, and is not American one.

173) Micheller7 : well I finally found number 7. It wasn’t easy even with the hints. Had to find the award with Google. It does not come up on awards search in LT. So found a winner, went to the book and the clicked on award. Not in abbreviated fashion.

Still not coming up with the right award. Maddening, especially as I detest this genre ...

Hints 51) {use google} and 53) helped me - find an award winner, go to the main page and scroll down the information under ‘Common Knowledge’ in the centre of the screen until you come to the line for ‘Awards and Honours’.

>5 humouress: To do that, would need the name of the award, which is what is eluding me.

>6 stringcat3: The key for me was realizing that it needs to be the award spelled out (so searching RoNA award didn't yield me the result as it needed to be the full name. See here if still need help, but note this link has the answer if you're still hoping to get there from hints alone.

215) AnnieMod : #7UK award, grab the name of its last winner (Google is your friend), look for them here in LT and chase down the exact page that way

A bit round about way but the thing seems to be working weirdly here so I had to workaround it from outside. It may work just with LT search but I got impatient.

242) AnnieMod : The British call these romantic novels, not romance novels :)

257kpagan : Go to Zeitgeist, and on the left side, click "Common Knowledge". Browse everything in the Overview, and you'll see "Book Award" and it will lead you to where you can search for RoNA. It took me forever : )
