Ya know… I had no idea readers would like Magic Fingers so much. No freakin’ clue. But I’m glad they like it. It’s my first, and so far only, contemporary story.
“Oh my! If I’d known Ms. Day could write a story this hot, I’d have been all over her books before Magic Fingers! Black Lace tends to me synonymous with hot and/or kinky, and this story fit right in. The sex between Alison and James was as thrilling as any erotica can get, and the ending will satisfy the romantics. And it wasn’t erotic in the sense that the language was the most detailed or explicit I’ve ever read; instead, what the author put down on paper jumped off the page with all the complete sensuality I could wish for. And though James was still a huge mystery by the end, this short story was fairly well wrapped up. There wasn’t anything that I felt was left hanging by the end, and even though I’d have been thrilled with a longer story (would I REALLY turn down more hot sex? Not likely!), it was perfect the way it was. After reading Magic Fingers, Ms. Day has won herself a spot on my auto-buy list.”

“And it wasn’t erotic in the sense that the language was the most detailed or explicit I’ve ever read…” — You all will remember that this was due to editing.
Now here’s something, I just finished copyedits to BAD BOYS AHOY! and I didn’t think the sex was all that hot. :scratch: I think my sex scenes in the Brava I turned in last week are hotter. And I’m working on edits to Misled right now, and I’m having to change the sex scenes, because I wrote the book a year ago and the sex isn’t the way I would write it now.

Great review! Please write more contemporaries
like this.:wink:
Congrats on the great review. Does this mean you’ll try more contemporaries….?
great review!!
Isn’t it funny when you read back over a book you wrote awhile ago and think..No, that’s not right. And you have to rewrite the scene or it will drive you nuts?
Awww, thank you, Annette.
Jordan, I better do it. I promised it to our mutal editor by Sunday night. :cafe:
You can do it!!!
Fabulous review, Sylvia! Congrats! I’m not surprised, of course–your writing is as elegant as it is scorching.
