I am currently trying to do a fourth but it is seeming very futile at this stage. How do I write romance in a way that middle aged normie women, and gays appreciate?

You have to pick one, it's impossible to appeal to both in significant numbers

Women love rape and someone to take care of them. Also pirates

Gay men are like men and they like physical things

Just get the bestsellers, distill their formula and archetypes and just fill the rest for your books. Don't tell me you're actually trying to make up shit.

It's all about marketing and not how you write.

Write abusive smut. That's what holes like. Arrogant bullies who are also tall, muscular, rich, and for some reason obsessed with them even though they're mediocre females.

The modern human is a cockroach, or at least the cockroach has the bravery to step out of the way before it gets crushed, modern humans are willingly entering the wage markets to become its slaves.
