According to a blurb on the back of the old-style paperback of The Laughing Corpse, yes. Also Jayne Anne Krentz, Diana Galbaldon, and J.D. Robb (isn't that a nomme de plume for Nora Roberts?). The last positive author review dates back to Obsidian Butterfly; after that they get very generic and vague: "steamy," "hot," "a thrill ride sure to please fans" etc. etc.
