Question of the Week: Does it light your libido reading scorching romances where the heroine is (or is undercover as) a sassy stripper?
Answer: I really don't fall one way or the other. For me, it's all about the story and the characters. I don't search specifically for those plot lines, but I will read them.
Funny that you should ask this question, as I just finished His Southern Temptation by Robin Covington ( Review to come later today), where the heroine did a small one day stint as a stripper.
However, I can tell you what I would LOVE to see-- a story where the HERO was the stripper. I can recall a really awesome fanfic--The Red Line--where the hero was a stripper. OMFG! Amazing story that really had it all: Drool worthy hero, wounded hero, tragic past for hero, great smexy times, and it made me sob like a baby.
I would totally buy it if there was a story out there like that. If anyone has come across such a thing---PLEASE let me know what the title/author is, Thank YOU!
Stripping for a living, in no way, defines you. It is the person inside. I have no right to judge what someone else does for a living. I wish I had the body that could get up on stage and twirl around the pole. That is a confidence that I have never had. But in my little fantasy world, I can shake my money maker and have my hero all worked up. LOL. And I look damn good while doing it.
What about you? Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
You had me laughing at "shake my money maker" ! I share your point of view.
ReplyDeleteI looked for your story but couldn't find it, I would have been interested in reading it too.
Red---The story 'The Red Line' was written by WindSinger...and it was was on fanfiction.net.
DeleteIt was a Twilight Fanfic.
Hope that helps. It was my all-time favorite. She wrote one more after that, titled Coloring Outside the Lines. Which I haven't read yet.
Let me know if you find it. And what you thought.
Have a great Sunday!
