I. . .well my friend reads loads of paranormal erotic romance! People who don't read these novels thinks there are no limits. Anything goes.
They're WRONG!
There are defintly things that should never ever be written in an erotic romance scene. Author Louisa Bacio is here to tell us those five things.
First, check out her hot new novel!
5 Things You Don't Put in Erotic Romance
by Louisa Bacio
Sad when given this topic, how quickly these five items flew out of my brain. Well, all except for #5, which comes courtesy of the man in my life.
1) Passing Gas –
We call them “fluffies” in our household, and never the crude other F word. Maybe in a romantic comedy, but when the hero’s straining from pumping exertion, ummm … no. Not sexy.
2) Douching after Sex –
I haven’t seen feminine deodorant products since the olfactory-offending companies used to give away free samples when I was in junior high and high school. Why do they gotta teach girls that your private area is stinky?
3) The hero/heroine’s parents having sex –
I’m all for more mature, mom lit. I appreciate realistic fiction but do I want to see a sex scene from the point of view of the hero’s mom? No-no.
4) Sex in Animal Form –
Do you want to be taken by a were-dragon while in animal form. Ouch! This one’s more of a general no-no included in most writer’s guidelines, and it falls under “bestiality.”
5) “Sweet Tits” –
We all know that men can be crude, but we want a little bit of the softer side. A guy recently hit on a friend at a bar, and his pick-up line was “I want to fuck the shit out of you.” I’m sorry, but I think a bit too literally. Give me the fantasy dialogue, and yeah, he didn’t get any.
Thanks so much for hosting me today, and for the bodacious topic. Hopefully, it’s not too much to handle!
