OMG YES PENNY JORDAN! I learned very quickly that she wrote the naughtiest love scenes, actually describing things (albeit still vaguely, but at least better than the 'hard thighs' and 'aching in her stomach' kind of thing'.

and when the moment of truth came there was some vague pain then trumpets and I think she orgasmed without difficulty after which she fell unconscious

HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

*wipes tear*

Man, I think I read that one in my mid-teens. I was annoyed a few years later (coughs TMI) when I discovered that RL didn't offer trumpets *or* fabulous orgasms the first time around. LOL.

For example, one of my favorite books of all time is a Mills and Boon story written by Essie Summers called The House of the Shining Tide. There are orphans and a slutty woman and miscommunication and all of the usual elements and even a dramatic car accident ZOMG, but I don't know, I like it. LOL

Oh, that sounds delightful! You know, I didn't realise how much I had to say on this subject until Sez told me to come over and read her post. I haven't discussed Mills and Boons with anything in literally decades, and you know what? It's making me want to try and find some of those old titles again. :)
