Nearly all of Sherrilyn Kenyon's sex scenes are cookin'. She actually had one in her last book ... dang, I'm drawing a blank on the name ... the hero is a virgin. Now that was different and hot! In Lynn Kurland's books she rarely (if ever) describes the sex scenes, yet nothing is taken away from the quality or the enjoyment of the story.

And you are so right about the importance of the connection. What's great is if sex is part of that connection (but not all of it). This way when the black moment comes and it looks like nothing save them, the reader is silently rooting for them. Michelle, those are some of my favorite JAK books too.

I love the sex scenes in Jayne Ann Krentz's earlier books, like Sweet Fortune, Absolutely Positively and Grand Passion. But for me, its more about the characters and their connection to one another. If that's strong, I'll forgive an author quite a bit in the sex scene department. I’ve come across few sex scenes that really make me sit up and say WOW.
