Thanks for putting me onto <em>Broken</em>. It's a book I've been thinking of trying for a very, very, VERY long time, but wasn't sure I could stomach. I ended up reading the entire thing in one night. I loved its intensity and, ironic for an erotic novel, I wished there had been less sex and more of the other stuff. And now I think I'll have to read <em>Dirty</em> sometime soon, especially after reading your spectacularly awesome review.

I would check out Meljean's site, where she has a primer on the universe she created. Actually, I started the series with Demon Moon, which is book 2.

The love scenes in Jill Barnett's <em>Bewitching</em>. Truly original and magical and add depth to what is happening between hero and heroine.

I don't remember the lo mein (maybe I blocked it out) but I definitely remember the moment when they had sex before she was ready, and she looks up into this stranger's face and freaks out internally. There's a man, <i>inside her</i> and she doesn't know what the hell he's doing there. So often in romance books the sex is always perfect, no matter when in the relationship it happens. But in this, the sex is so wrong for the heroine because the relationship hasn't developed yet. I love that scene.
