A Little Fantasy - Always Worth the Time!

Ah, fantasy -- where would we be without our fantasies?? It's a world of escape - that provides danger, adventure, exotic locales, imaginative themes, and ...yep, enough heat to keep any one of us warm on a winter evening.

Today's romantic fiction includes more erotic novels, published by a host of different houses that deal only in erotic romances. I can remember in high school hiding a book written by Harold Robbins while I was reading it. Oh my! such a racy book!. My mother would have killed me for reading such trash. But then, I can also remember asking my Mom when I was very little why Rickie and Lucy (OK, you had better know who that was!) slept in twin beds instead of a big bed like at our house. I can tell you that she didn't answer me ... that would have meant explaining and she wasn't ready to do so. Come to think of it, I don't think she was ever ready to explain things. And sometimes, I'm not ready for the "explaining" that's done in some of today's novels (yep, I've picked some up, read a few pages and quickly put them back down). I'm amazed sometimes that I still look around guiltily to make sure no one sees me reading "that book."

But the good thing is, I can pick and choose what I want to read without guilt and I value that.Be that as it may, we do have a number of novels in our stores that tip the scale of romances that can be termed erotic....some that have scenes of intimacy woven into the story line and some that seemed to have lost a story line in the scenes of intimacy. Stop by KC's Kozy Korner and check them out.
