I don't think I've ever been "worried" when I read a love scene b/f. That was a first.

I updated everone on Post #2 at 8/3/11 @ 1:42 p.m. PST. Let me know if I messed up. :)

[taita]

Fun! I'm in for 12 books starting today - 8/2/11.

Question ~ What do you mean by love scene? I mean - I suspect it has to be more than kissing but does it require (gasp) penetration? Or does getting felt up count? LOL. OK, now I am blushing.

[taita]

P.S.
If "steamy" scenes (and not just traditional sex) is OK for this challenge, I'd like to pass on the following for those of you trying to find some of the other locations. I can't count them for myself at the moment because I just started the challenge but want to pass along to the rest of you...

1. Airplane ~ The Dark Highlander by Karen Marie Moning (I still wonder at how gutsy it would be to do it on a plane with all those people close by. Hello!)

2. Dressing room ~ Kiss of the Highlander by Karen Marie Moning (Awesome!)

Wow, good question. How can I put this? There has to be an exchange of "private" body fluids. Nope. Doesn't quite work... Hmmmm... except where condomns are used with penatration involved. Okay, how about this: one of the participants has to climax. In this case, the airplane bathroom would count in .

GTK, Heather!

[Kate]

Is it to late to join into this challenge? If not I am going to aim for 12, and post as I go.

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Never too late, Kate! It is a year long challenge, starting from the date you start it. :)

[Lina]

Way to go Heather!!! I'm tipping you to reach at least thirty :-) No pressure, but it sure will be interesting to see all the different places! (cough-and-add-the-books-to-my-wishlist-cough)
P.S. I think I followed in your footsteps, it just occurred to me that if I get another elevator scene I might add it as The One :-)

[Heather]

I understand. Reading a book right now that has some fun times in the car, so even though Unlawful Contact had car action too, I didn't use it there. But I'll list it for ya'll's pleasure. lol
And 30? I was thinking 25.

I'm pretty sure when I first started reading romances (I cut my teeth on historicals) every second novel had a moving carriage scene. Seem to remember I even read one where the heroine was deflowered, even though the hero "meant to stop soon" because of a bump in the road!!! LOL. Now I know it's been absolute yonks since I've read one!

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

FOFL! I think I read the same one, CaroB, LOL!

[Kit★]

Me too! Which one was it, b/c I remember something like that as well.

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Heather, How are you liking ? I have that one lined up to read this month.

[Heather]

For the FAC, Lisa Kay? That's why I tackled it, and I'm really glad I picked this one. LF has been a hit and miss for me. I'm really loving it though. Dare, the hero, is great. The story is more about their relationship and not a lot of suspense, but the characters make this a really good book. I'm listening to it (Same narrator as BDB books) and I don't want it to end.
I will be picking up the rest in this series for sure.

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Thanks, Heather, GTK. And, yes, I'm doing it for the FAC and have it in paperback. (But I haven't started it yet.)

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Congrats on finishing first, Heather! We knew you would could do it!

[Heather]

Aww shucks. Thanks, Lisa Kay. I just really love my smut. lol

[Lina]

LOL Heather! you're in good company! Well done!!

Oh man! That would be so... anti-climatic. By accident because of a bump? Boo!

Lisa Kay wrote: "Whoa! I really like moving carriage love scenes! One of my favs. :)"

This was my first carriage scene. At least, the only one I can remember. I tend towards historicals so not sure what kind of variety I'll find. I'll keep looking though.

taita, I remember laughing myself silly over that one. That must've been one hell of a "bump and grind"! Ooh, sorry, now I'm getting crass... still get the giggles thinking about it :-)

[Heather]

Makes me wish I hadn't read the book yet, so I could have added it here. lol

I guess I'll just have to hold out for some inventive lovin' in the next Cat n Bones book at the end of this month. ;-)
