Poker? I Don’t Even Know Her!

I don’t know what the hell kind of world these people are living in, but how the hell can a man win a woman in a poker game? It would have been conceivable if this book had been set in the 1800s or something ’cause there’s always an asshole in those books putting up his sister to cover his wager, but I thought Silhouette Desire books are supposed to be all about the modern woman getting laid and shit. What is going on here? Did this woman’s asshole boyfriend/brother toss in a night with this woman to cover his bet or something? Hey… you know what kind of woman sleeps with people for money or to cover gambling debts? A WHORE! A DIRTY SKANKY WHORE! But knowing Silhoutte Desire, this woman is probably a virgin who wouldn’t be able to identify the business end of a dildo if it were staring her in the face. And I bet she’s always loved the millionaire playboy who won her. Since he’s a playboy and will just move on to the next sucker after he’s had her, I bet this bimbo sleeps with him only because she wants “one special night” with him before she cloisters herself in a nunnery in France or something.

I need a drink.

Thanks to Amber for this ridiculous cover.

    Maybe there’s a reason you don’t get many comments on your blog. You’re negative, you cuss like a sailor and your attitude quite franky stinks.

    I followed a link to your blog. I’m going to quickly back away and never come back.

    There are waaaaaaaaaaaay too many positive blogs out there to mess with crap like yours.

    Man, I hate it when people write me self-righteous, stick-up-the-ass rants and they don’t sign their frickin’ name to it.

    Chick-chick-chicken? Bawk-bawk-bawk.

    It’s people like you who are turning this country the way it is: puritanical, judgmental, and small-minded. Why don’t you go join a book-burning? Why are you even wasting your time on the Internet? Don’t you know that the Internet is full of “negative”, hateful people with “stinky” attitudes? It goes with the world we live in, Princess! Shouldn’t you be looking under toadstools for faeries or searching for unicorns?

    Wait a minute… Barbara McCauley, is that you?

    Hey Bam….

    I’m one of those puritanical sorts, BUT I STILL LOVE YOUR BLOG!

    Keep up the snark. What else would I do with my lunch hour if I couldn’t ocassionally spew coffee on my computer screen?

    Anonymous 1:16, it was small-minded of me to include all the puritans under the asshole umbrella.

    Not all puritans are assholes. Fact!

    It’s funny because I’m actually doing this for love. I love romance novels. I love the cheesy covers.

    People can’t playa-hate. They gotta participate!
