Harlequin "Escape with a military hero" (2015) :30 (Canada)

Interesting fact: Harlequin publishes 110 titles a month in 34 different languages. But most women haven't read more than one title in the past five years. What a head scratcher. Could it be because the books are usually poorly written and the most thought given to them is what the front page cover looks like?
I digress.
This campaign sets out to solve that problem for Harlequin by showing the uh, benefit of the book for middle aged suburban moms: sexy fantasy time. Great casting all around, too.
