I'm going to get into all kinds of trouble for saying this, but probably the 
reason Debbie McComber is on for romance, not religion is that her books, those 
I've read, focus on relationships and romance, not the salvation of the main 
characters.  In the Christian Romances I've read, the coming to Christ is more 
important than the romance or even the story itself, and I say this as a 
Christian.  When I read, I want a ripping good story with a happy ending.  A 
strong religious foundation strengthens the story, but it's not why I'm reading 
it.  
I recently read Shean on the Silk by ann Perry.  It had a lot to say about 
religion and one's personal relation with God without making that the bee all 
and end all of the story.  it made it richer.  It made it far better, but the 
story could have stood without it. 
Now, I'd better duck!

  And I thought so but my husband reminded me that not only do her books say 
strong language but some  have description of sex,
  so guess that is why she's not there.

    I  think the reason Debbie McComber is not on the heartsong presents is 
when I have  looked on some of her talking books, some say "some strong 
Language"
    and she is not really listed as religion and spirituality in all cases.
    It is just listed as romance only.
