A London-based art director and her boyfriend could create their very own Mills and Boon-themed photobook, after recreating scenes from the iconic books.

Alex Holder and her boyfriend Ross Neil slapped on the fake tan and took up some of the interesting poses seen on the front covers of the romance novels, says Metro.

They took on the project to mark International Women's Day earlier this month, but they could make a keepsake of the interesting challenge with a lovely photobook.

Poses they have done so far include the covers of Dark Obsession, Master Of Marshlands and A First Time For Everything.

Mills and Boon has been setting pluses racing since 1908. The company began life as a published of general fiction, before it saw its success in penning romance novels for women.

Approximately 70 titles are now published in the UK every month, and the company claims that one of its books flies off the shelves every three seconds.
