Eventually they get together again, and she tries to make him promise never to spank her again. He refuses, but tells her that she can just behave, and they leave it at that and get engaged and married.

It was easy enough to sneak their books.

But along came Marian Keyes and she did romance with such humour in Watermelon, that I began to see the appeal.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05664433877029404270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398320945823735812.post-64135247783332586632014-06-13T14:20:42.884+01:002014-06-13T14:20:42.884+01:00Etta, I grew you with Harlequins (and yes, Mills a...Etta, I grew you with Harlequins (and yes, Mills and Boon is an imprint of theirs over here) and as such, once mentioned trying to write one to a friend. Her response was, "Yeah, right, like you could manage to get through a whole book without somebody getting spanked. Good luck with that.." She's probably right...
