This was a very different kind of book. It's classified as chick-lit, which I'll admit I'm none too familiar with. It is a romance, but a very light hearted and funny one. I busted a gut laughing so many times throughout this book, but... the sex scenes are not for the faint hearted. If you blush easily (or are under 18), skip this one. Most romances have some sex scenes. This book has ALOT of them, and they're steamy. They tie each other up, have (detailed!) oral sex, multiple positions, you name it. The author's even detailed enough that you could pick up pointers to help you in your own bedroom. This is WAY too much information for me to be comfortable with a romance novel. I don't need that kind of detail. For that reason, I downgraded it from a 5 star rating to a 4. I want a romance novel, not a soft porn book. I loved the humor, but the sex was too explicit, unfortunately.

A blast from the past! This is probably my fave of her books, back when she was still writing romances and not the silly vamp/dragon stuff. Let me know what you think!

The sex is very explicit and a bit too frequent for my tastes, but it's hilariously funny. Gark! lol
Most of her sex is, if memory serves me correctly. I loved that the heroine was a "real" woman - not a size 2 with big boobs :)
Yes, was nice to see that someone didn't have to be model perfect, skinny and look like Barbie to be the herione.
