FLY ME TO THE MOON
Fresh from jilting her latest groom, hand-picked by her Mafioso father, Sofia Cardinella stumbles across Frank Sinatra-wanna-be Ben Estes. Ben turns out to be as suave and seductive as Ol' Blue Eyes himself. Sofia senses they could make beautiful music together, aside from one tiny hitch : Daddy wants to have Ben killed.

Cel - Do NOT, I repeat NOT, ever ask Cissy to mail you anything, Helena.
SueM - Go ahead!
Cissy -
KylieAdams - I got a nasty review from a critic who really found the love scenes in the book too raunchy. I was curious to see what you thought of them, and when you think authors take sensuality too far.
Ginger - Cel has she still not sent you your books?
Cel - Cissy
Helena - tell me about it Ms Cissy
Cel - Oh wow, Kylie...I thought the love scenes were great
Sara - too raunchy? not a bit. KYLIE, I GAVE this book to 17 year old girls!! it is NOT raunchy.
Cel - don't ask, Ginger
andrea - That is an interesting question - I don't think most romance's take it too far, except for one author (she used to right for playboy) and her books read like it
Sara - okay, a bit stimulating , but not raunchy
jennyboofoo - Raunchy? Sizzling maybe. I don't know if sensuality can be taken too far.
Ginger - Kylie I haven't yet read your book, but it is hard to go to far in a love scene unless it involves more than two people (or animals) LOL
KylieAdams - Then we must get this reviewer to a therapist!
Cissy - Not raunchy, Kylie!
jennyboofoo - I think sex scenes can go too far but not sensuality.
Cel - Absolutely, Kylie...that review must be a total prude
andrea - stimulating is good
Sara - I will never think of honey, in quite the same way. Hmm, even thought of a bit of experimentation
KylieAdams - Ginger, animals, I agree, but never count out a third after one to many martinis!
Ginger - LMAO Kylie
TLynn - When it comes to love scenes, stimu
KylieAdams - Sara, I think the trade association for honey manufacturers should write me a check!
andrea - Kylie, I'll disagree with you there - more than 2 is not a romance it's erotica
Sara - Kylie, you will have to come to our SensualRomance group
Cel -
Sara - SueM has the next question (Sara in line)
TLynn - lating is good!!!! Great even!!!
jennyboofoo - Think of it as jealousy, Kylie! After all, I loved the little blurb at the end of your book. Where if they don't like your book (or scenes) they can write their own. It's also one person's opinion and you got a crew who adore the book!
KylieAdams - Jennyboofoo is officially on Kylie's adore list!
SueM - What other books have you written?
jennyboofoo - pshaw
Sara - it was probably a reviewer who needs to expand their horizons. Was it a romance critic?
jennyboofoo - ?
KylieAdams - yes, but I can't remember who or where it was posted now.
Sara - Sara has the next question (Cel, jennyboofoo in line)
Cel - Come on Sara...I know you can type fast

Helena - wow cris I always think of myself when I see your name
KylieAdams - SueM, darling I didn't see your question. This is my first romantic comedy. I wrote two suspense novels for Pinnacle (REMEMBER SEPTEMBER and THE PERFECT MOTHER)
