Lauren Dane: A Suburban Mom in Disguise

I just added a new post to the "Chatting with" series on "Rosa is for Romance".

Lauren Dane: A Suburban Mom in Disguise

"Lauren Dane is a suburban mom with a salacious imagination that she’s put to good use with her writing. Her favorite thing is when people tell her that she doesn’t look like “someone who’d write those books.” She lives in the Northwest with her husband and three very rambunctious kids. She writes everything from paranormals to contemporary BDSM books and develops terrible crushes on all of her heroes. Even though she lives in her head a lot, she does venture outside from time to time to collaborate with other authors, oh and to buy shoes too."

I'm looking at the cover of that book and I had the giggles. A girl friend and I were looking at books in the erotica section of a bookstore last night, and that one stood out. Yes, we were a little silly. But that one was noticable, because the friend had seen a movie playing at the local theatre the night before called "What Happens in Vegas". I don't think they based the movie on that particular book. ;))

I bet a lot of the erotica writers couldn't be picked out of a crowd. Everyday people.

Yes, I think it has nothing to do with the movie, and yes, the cover is quite and eyes catch. And then the author in it are quite good. I know both Lauren, than Anya Bast and Kit Tunstall and are quite good. Kit also wrote some M/M romance. Elisa

From Lauren Dane:
Nope, but I have to admit I laughed when I saw the movie coming out. We sold
the anthology in November 0f 2006 - what are the odds? LOL!!

Ms. Dane must have chuckled that a mainstream movie had the same title as an anthology she contributed to.

I'm wondering if people came across the anthology when they were searching out "What Happens in Vegas".

She sounds like the Northwest version of me... I think of myself as kind of a double agent...

LOL, well it's a great way to get through the day really. Being here in the suburbs, surrounded by people who have NO idea what I get up to ;)

With my views of well written erotica and certain chick flick movies, I hope people do check out the anthology. I expect there is more entertainment and bang for the buck in that one book than in that movie. :)

unless your kids, like mine, rat you out...

Love the cover of the Las Vegas book.
