Safe and Sexy #46
Thinking of my romances and safe sex at the same time started when I wrote my discussion post with the same name a long time ago! Not too long after, the idea of sharing quotes about that ensured that the feature Safe and Sexy was born. It’s where I will share a quote from a story I have read, and where there is a lot of hotness and sexiness, but where they still take the time to be safe! It’s important to me to read books that make me dream, but I also want them to be somewhat realistic. And to me, characters seem realistic when they take care of themselves and their partner(s)! Safe sex is a great way to do so, and when an author includes a couple of lines to share that they are indeed using condoms, I am such a happy reader. And I think it’s sexy when both new and ‘old’ lovers show that they respect each other by getting that condom, and possibly making using it both safe & sexy, hot and fun.
If you want to participate with your very own Safe and Sexy quotes, go right ahead. The more the merrier, and maybe your quote will help me add a new book to my bloated TBR shelf 😉 One can never have enough books, right? Without further ado, here’s my Safe and Sexy quote for this week, it’s from Ink Exposed by Carrie Ann Ryan.
My Safe and Sexy quote:
When she came down from her high, he rested his head on hers, his hand still down her pants. “I don’t have a fucking condom. Damn it. It’s been –” he cut himself off.
It had been a while for him. That much she knew. He’d been so good over the past year or so because he’d been focused on healing. That was why he didn’t carry a condom with him.
“In my bag,” she said softly. “I keep one on me.”
She blushed as he grinned at her. “What? I want to be prepared and not have to rely on the guy to keep me safe. Got a problem with that?”
He slid his hand out of her pants and licked his fingers. “No problem at all.”
