All my sex scenes are in the book for a reason, even if the reason is just pleasure between people. But the best thing about sex is that it's rife with emotion. Sometimes people forget that and that's the difference between a sex scene that you remember years later from a book and one that you don't remember the next day. (the dock scene in Welcome to Temptation is a great example for me or the first time Jamie and Claire have sex in Outlander) Sara - thanks! I hope so, it's just slow careful going right now, I want to take care to write it the best way I can. Jorrie- true.

I like sex scenes that are about more than the mechanical in and out. This sounds like it will be a good one. Good luck! I’m with Jorrie.

I love it when there's a lot of characterization going on during a sex scene. I'm that much more engaged. I mean, yes, all sex scenes should have characterization, but not all sex scenes carry the same weight, nor should they. Interesting post, Lauren.
