I'm pretty mainstream fiction. I write erotica, but not under my real name. I was in the library last night and stumbled upon a "romance" novel. I only use quotes because honestly, I don't want to classify her beautiful writing as "romance" because it gives it a trashy name.

Anyway, I picked the book up and thought, well I'll read this. It looked interesting and I liked that she titled her series The Nauti Boys. I'm talking about romance writer, Lora Leigh. Before last night, I'd never heard of her before.

As of right now, not only did I devour the book I picked up last night (yes I'm done with it), I absolutely loved it and now have the other two in the series sitting here and I'm about 20 pages in on one of them.

They have a dominant male, and a strong willed, rebellious female in each of the books. Delicious... loved it from the start. Plus, sprinkled throughout the book were all these references to "Your going to get a spanking", etc. OMG! I love Lora Leigh!!

Makes me more certain that I can totally write books like this and that they would be well received. Lora, if you ever get to read this - I absolutely adore your writing style, your characters and their stories. Simply beautiful.

They remind me of a relationship from a few years ago....
Never mind. I'm not supposed to go there.
