I finally finished my little experiment of reading 31 "smutty" books, for the month, to help me understand visceral emotions when writing my own characters. This experiment was a huge eye opener for me. It showed me, not only how to dive into my characters emotions but also showed me pacing and character development. I usually read literary and historical fiction and non-fiction, but 'smut' has become a new favorite.
Flirty Ever Afters is a collection six of well-written stories, all character connected. Although each had their own special touches: Cherry finding her 'one' with a mourning brother, Lacey reconnecting with a lost love... but its the story, Dear All-Star Player stood out as the jewel for me.
Rose is set up on a blind date, unbeknownst to her, with her ex-high school bully, Seth. Seth wants to prove he's a different man. Rose wants revenge. What happens next is sweet and funny. Rose and Seth are perfect together. Rose is strong and spunky and Seth is playful and kind, not to mention he knows how to appreciate a woman with spirit. I loved that it was different than most 'romances' as Rose stood her ground, she was her own person, without being bitchy or standoffish, and yet, she still showed she loved her man. Loved it!
