Difficult week - which resulted in me falling off the wagon in regards to my chocolate addiction. Well that, and, ahem, that time of month.
Here's a blurb from a sex scene in a romance novel that I've been reading. The novel is set in 18th century, England, and not a gothic or supernatural story, just your standard run of the mill historical romance:
"He felt he would do just about anything to get her to bare her neck to him again."
Me: What is he, a vampire? Seriously, her neck?
This writer does not excel at sex scenes. Actually, whenever I come across them in her novels - I think, okay, you aren't very good at this, you might want to scale back a bit. Her sex scenes feel a tad awkward and are often a bit funny. And I don't think it is always intentional.
( Warning explicit sexual content behind the cut...okay not really, but close enough )
