Alethea Spiridon-Hopson

In her new role, Spiridon-Hopson will oversee the company’s new romance genre line (headed by editorial director Lori Wilde) called “Indulgence.”

Wilde gave this statement in the release: “Indulgence will focus on alpha heroes and storylines similar to those found in Harlequin’s very successful Desire line.  Our category romances will emphasize young, fresh voices within the traditional tropes.”

Spiridon-Hopson is looking for “flirty voices,” good humor and strong characters. Prior to this appointment, she served as an editor at Harlequin for almost seven years and worked as a freelance editor. In the past, she has worked with authors Bobby Hutchinson, Roberta Gellis and Lori Foster.
