smetchie | 5729 comments M/M Romance?? I saw it on a group discussion (yours Kasia) and I thought, what? What does that mean?
This is what it means.
My Fair Captain (Sci-Regency Series, Book 1) by J.L. Langley
Talk about a compromising situation! A storm of political intrigue, murderous mayhem and sexual hungers is brewing on planet Regelence. Swarthy Intergalactic Navy Captain Nathaniel Hawkins ran from a past he had no intention of ever reliving. But when his Admiral asks him to use his peerage, as an earl and the heir to a dukedom, to investigate a missing weapons stash, hes forced to do just that. As if being undercover on a Regency planet where the young men are supposed to remain pure until marriage isnt bad enough, Nate finds himself attracted to the kings unmarried son. All Prince Aiden Townsend has ever wanted was to be an artist. He has no interest in a marriage of political fortune or becoming a societal paragon. Until he lands in the arms of the mysterious Earl of Deverell. One look at Nates handsome face has Aiden reconsidering his future. Not only does Nate make a virile subject for Aidens art, but the great war hero awakens feelings in Aiden he has never felt, feelings he cant ignore. After a momentous dance at a season ball, Aiden and Nate find themselves exchanging important information and working closely together. They have to fight their growing attraction long enough to find out who stole the weapons and keep themselves from a compromising situation and certain scandal. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, violence, hot nekkid man-love.

If you don't hear from me again for 6 months, you know where I am.

Kasia You'd be surprised, some people really are into this stuff. And by people I mean suburban housewives with 2.5 kids, husband and SUV... Shocked yet?


message 3: by Kasia (new)

Kasia And yeah, anything goes in that group: Paranormal Romance? Sure. Harlequins? No problem. M/M erotic romances? Absolutely.


message 4: by Kasia (new)

Kasia No judgement.

smetchie | 5729 comments I'm just shocked that I'm not the ONLY suburban housewife who would like to read about a Gay Intergalactic Navy Captain and his artistic prince lover. HA! I thought it was just me. But I bet the writing is terrible isn't it? That might be a problem. Or maybe not. I guess it depends how good the "explicit sex, graphic language, violence, and hot nekkid man-love." is.


Jiaka1981 Winfield you should read The Sleeping Beauty Trilogy by Anne Rice. There is some hot guy on guy action in there

I wish I could help you there... I don't have a first hand experience yet, though I might crack under pressure any time now. I tried some PNR though and even the top notch well edited stuff disappoints: there's just not enough plot for me. Some are not deterred by such trivial matters though...

Amanda (randymandy) explicit sex, graphic language, violence, hot nekkid man-love

My favorites!!!!!!!!!!


message 10: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) What?


Reads with Scotch go stand in the corner Amanda... you know what you have done. FOR SHAME!


message 12: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) :(


Reads with Scotch go eat some bacon, and all will be forgiven :)


message 14: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) You, YOU. Ohhhhh, now that's just pure evil.


Reads with Scotch This shit genre makes me want to vomit. I can't believe people actually kill trees for the sole purpose of printing that on paper.


message 16: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) Did Amanda just say that bacon is pure evil? Crisp, delicious bacon? Is she some kind of communist?


message 17: by Kasia (new)

Kasia And since when communists don't like bacon?

PS. I think it was Mr Heiner that was evil.


message 18: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) Hate of bacon = unAmerican = communist.


message 19: by Kasia (new)

Kasia The equal signs there - totally unjustified!!!!


message 20: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) Kasia must be a communist, too.


message 21: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) I love bacon! But I hate killing animals for the sole purpose of making me fatter. Therefore, MorningStar Farms it is. Delicious, rubbery, TVP "bacon."

What's wrong with sexy, delicious, futuristic love stories?
Plus, if you buy a used copy, you're saving the tree. :)

Kasia Tom must be evil, too.

smetchie | 5729 comments I think the whole Kasia is a communist thing has already been determined. That's why she's saying communists DO like bacon.


message 25: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) Amanda, you can't love bacon but eat "bacon." Eating "bacon" is, in and of itself, an act of hate against bacon.

Kasia: thanks for noticing.

You don't have to be a communist to say that. Just think about it: communists were deprived (are depriving themselves???...) of stuff, so why be picky about meat? Being anti-becon is just not that practical or sensible...


message 27: by Dave (new)

Dave Russell Hate of bacon = unAmerican = communist.

Tom, you anti-Semite.


message 28: by smetchie (new)

smetchie | 5729 comments How is eating bacon and act of hate against it? Bacon exists to be eaten. You make it happy when you eat it.

Kasia: Communist Sympathizer. Wishy-washy on love of bacon. Polish citizenship still in question.::

I need to think about this for a while... Ponder the nature of bacon, mother nature, and the balance of pigs therein.

I can't tell if you're arguing Tom or agreeing with him. I'm blinded by this conversation! And I'm afraid it might change my world view. Fuck that shit.

Cow bacon?


message 33: by Dave (new)

Dave Russell Is there such a thing as cow bacon?


message 34: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) Gretchen, i'm making a distinction between bacon, which is pure and right and just, and quite possibly the food of the gods, and the non-bacon "bacon" that Amanda eats: Delicious, rubbery, TVP "bacon."





message 35: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) Dave wrote: "Is there such a thing as cow bacon?"

Yes, there is!

Oh I was thinking about tofu backon. My bad.

And cow bacon??? That's just wrong. Please do not make up stuff.


message 37: by smetchie (new)

smetchie | 5729 comments OOOOOHHHH. right that bacon IS hate. I'm with you.

Amanda said she loves bacon but she doesn't eat it because you have to kill a pig to get it.


message 38: by Kasia (new)

Kasia Gretchen wrote: "Amanda said she loves bacon but she doesn't eat it because you have to kill a pig to get it."

So she basically loves the pig until it dies and then she doesn't care anymore. That's shallow Amanda!!!! You should respect the dead!!!

And the "because you have to kill" thing? Boo-hoo! Everything has to die sometime, and I prefer my meat fresh (as opposed to carcass).


message 39: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (randymandy) *exits stage right*


Reads with Scotch I "had" a friend that insisted I try Farmland$trade/ turkey bacon... not only is he no longer a friend, but that was not bacon... what part of the turkey do they get the "bacon" from?


message 41: by Kasia (new)

Kasia No Amanda where did you go????!!!!!


message 42: by smetchie (new)

smetchie | 5729 comments I'm so happy that everyone has to look at that hairy man-chest with the unusually large nipples every time they click in here to talk about bacon. :)

I doesn't always work right, if the reds spread over 2 or more pages, you might be in trouble...

message 47: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) There is now a bacon poll. The hippies have already started skewing the results. Yes, Alfonso, i'm including you with the hippies.


message 48: by Rusty (new)

Rusty (rustyshackleford) | 2198 comments It doesn't seem too active, but the premise behind this group is admirable.

message 49: by Kasia (new)

Kasia No wonder it's not active, how much can be said about bacon?


Reads with Scotch A LOT!
