I'm sorry to say that I am not a reader anymore and I'm not sure when it was that I turned into a non-reader type person. It just happened.
There was a time when the above words of a cheap, romance novel made my day and kept me all horny-fied until my husband came home from work. Well, my first husband.... and I was MUCH younger in those days and probably
Savage Thunder by Johanna Lindsey was my favorite... you know... the one with the entire page describing them having sex while riding a horse. I would read it to you right now if I still had the paperback.
And, LOOK... Fabio was on the cover portraying Colt Thunder..... erm, the guy on the boing boing horse.
When I searched for the same steamy book today the cover had been completely revamped. It looks like a Little House On The Prairie cover. What the..... hey, where did Fabio go?
Sure wish I had my original copy with Fabio the fabulous on it. *snifs* Where for art thou Fabio? Don't tell anyone, but I still get excited when I think about that horse riding sex scene in the book.

You do crack me up.....can you believe you read those books.....I did once apon a time. Now I shudder.
Old age, must be.
I count on you every day for a chuckle.
I never could get into the romance novels... but I do love to read. I'm more of a spy thriller type girl. There's some pretty steamy scenes in some of those books too, just not quite so graphic ;) (leaves more to the imagination)
Fabio was a hunk, though. Going to check out on google what he looks like today. And wtf is up with the new cover????
OMG! I laughed out loud at your post!!! Yeah, those were the days and I think my husband wishes I still read those books!!! :) I certainly used to and like you I think the hormones were there as well--sigh...That little house on the praire look just doesn't do it, does it!! Come to think of it I think today might be library day...

OH... and check out Fabio's Ugg boots! wow, was he 'with it' or what?? LOL My kinda uggy guy. LMAO
Ok. I'm laughing so hard over here. This post lightened up a serious morning for me. And now I totally want to read that book, and laugh.
LOL you would never know by the innocent Little House cover what goes on inside that book ha!
I always remember Fabio best from when he was on that roller coaster and was smacked in the nose by a bird,lol...poor Fab!
O.M.G. That was a trip down memory lane for me. As a young teen, I absolutely adored Barbara Cartland novels -- always a Duke or Marquis in the story. I was starry-eyed over the Marquis every time.
My trashy novel reads evolved into historical romances which then evolved into autobiographies and more factual type books -- travelling, countries, cultures.
*sigh* The last year or so, I don't have much time to read at all. Must be all this blog writing and hopping, twittering and facebooking I've been doing!!
Oh yes, I remember those books! :) LOL!
Would you like to borrow my horse to learn how impossible those scenes really are?
