Naked Reader Book Club Discussion: THE SWEETEST KISS (October 26, 7-11 PM EST)

Contributor: Kristina Wright Kristina Wright
Welcome once again to the Naked Reader Book Club! Tonight we're discussing The Sweetest Kiss: Ravishing Vampire Erotica, edited by D.L. King.

Sweetest Kiss: Ravishing Vampire Erotica

Edited by D.L. King

Sex with a bite.

Immortal, eternally beautiful, strong, and sexy, vampires take what they need, stealing the life force from those unlucky (or lucky) enough to cross their paths. Edited by noted erotica writer D.L. King, The Sweetest Kiss takes readers into shadowy alleys and dark bedrooms to experience the frisson of terror and delight that only a vampire can inspire. Satisfying their lust in contemporary and period settings, the seductive creatures of The Sweetest Kiss join a growing cast of characters that mesmerize us in every medium, from books and graphic novels to movies and television shows. These blood-drenched tales give us new meaning to the term "dead sexy" and feature beautiful bloodsuckers whose desires go far beyond blood.


***

Vampires are dangerous, mysterious and always, always sexy. It seems appropriate that we talk about vampire stories in October, but the allure of the vampire goes beyond Halloween. Whether you've read The Sweetest Kiss or not, this is the place to talk about your passion for those darkly erotic denizens of the night! Tell us which stories you enjoyed, what it is about vampires that makes your blood boil and why you think the appeal of the vampire has not only endured, but exploded in the past few years. WIth the canon of vampiric erotica growing, this is a discussion that promises to continue late into the night!

Everyone is welcome in the Naked Reader Book Club, so pour yourself a glass of red and let's talk about vampires!

Good to see some new faces this week!

So... who has read The Sweetest Kiss? Favorite stories?

I, will admit to having not read it

But it is on my wishlist, and the next time I go shopping for books I'll be getting it.

I have a handful of favorites from this one...of course...but my ABSOLUTE favorite has to have been Wait Until Dark, Montresor by Thomas Roche. It wasn't nearly as erotic as what I normally go for but just the way it was written had me hooked...I've read it several times over.

Oh, Thomas Roche writes the most deliciously wicked stories, doesn't he? That's one of my favorites, as well.

Hi Julia, hi Illusional,

I'm really happy to be here! I'm actually here, in Vegas, with Kathleen Bradean and she's trying desperately to get on the site to say hi. She's having computer problems, but I'm sure it'll work soon.

Hi Kristina,

I have to own the fact that, yes, I am a vampire junkie. I used to tell people that I wasn't, but I recently looked at the books and DVDs I own and finally admitted it to myself.

I just finished watching the full season of Moonlight and One of my favorite authors is Laurell K Hamilton.
