There
are some authors I can (and do) read again and again. Some, like Lora Leigh and Kresley Cole,
capture my attention with a particular storyline I must follow…I must read
every available facet of the world created and the characters I’ve come to
love.
One of
my favorite authors is Robin Schone. Her
plots are original, sometimes heartbreaking.
Her characters are raw in a way few writers can capture. Her overall stories draw me in and hold me
hostage. The depth of emotion, the sense
of being part of the story, is portrayed so beautifully, I find myself thinking
about it long after the last line has been read.
I live
in Oklahoma…not exactly a hotbed of erotic fiction. I’m forced to order her books online and wait
impatiently for them to arrive. I then
greedily open the book, knowing I will not be disappointed…and she has never
failed me.
If you
haven’t read her work, you are missing out on a writer who can transport you
into another time and place with details guaranteed to make you believe the
people and locations are real, existing in that very moment. The first book I read was The Lady’s Tutor and I became an instant
devotee of her talent.
Most of
her work is placed in the late nineteenth century and that in itself is unusual
for erotica. The availability of
telephones, trains, and condoms in an era of strict Victorian prudery adds
another layer to her work that is unexpected and welcome.
