Do you remember the warm cozy feeling of having someone read you that last bedtime story when you were little? The two halves of Adriana are delighted to recommend to you a book for your adult bedtime reading - Sex Games, by Linda Sonntag. I’ve reviewed it at e-pinions, and I just posted a fuller review on my website, under “favorites.”
One of the games recommended in Sonntag’s book is reading out loud. There’s nothing quite like having your sweetie read you an erotic scene, and as Sonntag points out, “you can add the endings that won’t send you to sleep!”
Every erotic scene in every one of our published books has been read out loud and tested in exactly this fashion, and so have a few others by some of our favorite authors, so we thought we’d give you a little tour this morning and recommend a scene or two for every taste!
m/f Of course this is our staple, since we’re a married couple writing erotic romance!
In The Diary, Kate and Grayson make slow and tender love in a private cottage at Stratford Upon Avon; she’s wearing only an emerald pendant. One of my best loved scenes, and yes, we re-read it out loud every so often! That must be why Krista at Coffee Time Romance proclaimed, “The intimacy is genuine and breathtaking”
If you like fast and furious ravishing love, Jim and Merry can’t even make it past the foyer of her house for their first mating in The Merry Widow.
In Through the Mirror, Lacy Hogan thinks she’s planning a dinner tryst, but when she stops by Doug’s office to invite him over, neither of them can wait that long!
f/f Lots of our published erotic romance includes f/f scenes. Here are a couple favorites:
Merry Delaney has no inkling what fun awaits her once Camille St. Germain introduces her to Girl’s Night Out in The Merry Widow
For a quick read and no shortage of scenes to select from, Full Circle delivers a little bit of almost everything, including some very hot f/f scenes.
Author Megan Rose offers a delightful little taste in Shh, a short story in the Torquere Toy Box Gags collection.
Beth Wylde’s superb f/f book Switching Sides has found a new home and will be released at Torquere Press on April 19th
f/m/f These are some of our favorite scenes to read and write, and nearly all our published books are filled with them.Kate and Grayson take London Town in a delightful romp with Gina Motta in The Diary.
Merry Delaney doesn’t want to miss out on any opportunities in The Merry Widow.
Our short erotic romp Full Circle, with six main characters, delivers ménage a trois and then some!
m/f/m What could be better than not one but two men totally devoted to a woman’s every desire?
Lacy Hogan loves sandwiches and hopes someday to experience one in this reality as exquisite as her other-world encounter in Through the Mirror.
Desiree Rogers has tried a lot of things, but never two men at the same time till her former roommate offers her a chance in Full Circle
Sheila Crawford’s dream comes true in Sheila’s Prenups
Ellora’s Cave author LA Day delivers yummy m/f/m scenes in They Both Belong to Me.
m/m We do have one m/m scene in a published book and more on the way soon, but if I tell you which book, it’ll give away an ending, so I’ll keep you guessing! Meanwhile here are some great selections from other authors:
Cassandra Gold is one of my favorite m/m authors and I know you’ll love Fantasies New Years Eve from Red Rose Publishing.
AJ Llewellyn is another choice m/m author - check out The Forbidden Island and Phantom Lover at Extasy Books.
There’s lots more out there, a little something for everyone. Just to whet your appetite, you can find great phone sex in The Merry Widow and Through the Mirror! Excerpts from all my books - published and coming soon - are available at my website.

Ardiana, DH and I do this alot. We love reading out loud.
There is just something about snuggling up with your favorite guy and reading a steamy story.
In front of our fireplace is our favorite spot.
Love it, Deb! And you are so right, no need to limit "bedtime" reading to the bedroom!
Adriana
Thanks for the recommendations, Adriana. :) My dh is constantly peering over my shoulder to see if I'm at a "good part." :)
Wendi Darlin
Thanks for the great list, I don't do this often enough with my dh.
nice suggestion, i do have to check that book out.....looks hot and sounds hot....
That's great, Wendi! So now the question is -- if you ARE at one of the good parts, who gets to read it out loud??
Cool, Cathy - show him this list and let him take his pick!! A little something for everyone, I hope!
Thanks, Savannah - it's truly a find, lots of fun!
Adriana
Great idea, Adriana. I think we need a permanent registry of the hottest bed time reading to share aloud with our sweethearts or even to read alone. That would boost global warming in a good way!
oooooo what a terrific thought, BlytheSpirit! I'm all for heating everything up in that fashion...
Great advice, Adriana.
Now I just need a reading partner.
Got any ideas on that? lol
I can't think of anything sexier than hearing a man's voice reading an erotic passage. Yummy!
You have m/m scenes?!? Where have I been that I missed this news?
I've gotta get those books, then. Love me some m/m... ;)
Oh, and I never read erotica with the hubby--I love him lots, but I think he'd be giggling like an eighth grader. o_O
He does reap the benefits of my reading sometimes, however!
lol to both comments, Cassandra!
I can't tell you which book, tho - it would give away the ending!
