A Reference Guide for Writing Intimate Lovemaking

Voluptuous Verbs: Synonyms to Spice Up Your Steamy Scenes is for any writer who has a sex scene in their story and wants to be sure the quality of the scene matches the experience they are trying to convey. If you want to convey a subtle, intimate connection between the characters, this book can help you find the language to achieve that. Want to make the reader experience an insatiable lust that requires hands-on reading? This thesaurus has just the words you're looking for. Genres can include anything from spicy romance to paranormal tales, to thrillers, to sci-fi adventures, as long as there is at least one scene of physical intimacy.

"Should be in every author's toolbox!"

Why settle for mundane descriptions like "she took off his pants" when you can spice things up? Replace it with, "She unbuckled, unzipped, and unsteadied him." Find verbs that penetrate your scenes and leave your readers panting. This thesaurus includes writing tips on how to use the bedroom scene to develop the protagonist's inner growth, their inner and outer consequences, the relationship's consequences, the subtext of the scene, and the wild card.

Who this book is not for: This thesaurus is not for writers of sweet romance nor any genre that doesn't include scenes of physical intimacy. Also, profanity and naughty words coat the pages, including words that can sound aggressive and negative. If such language may upset you, this is not the book for you.
