I like how on some of these the word balloon is strategically placed so you don’t know for sure which character is saying it.
Mystery!!!
If you go way back, my two favorites are “The sex was better on line” and [If it will make you feel better I’ll say that I was wrong]. (brackets mean I don’t remember the quote exactly.)
Well, a sense of “mystery” is often good in a romance!
By the way, Rex, thanks for mentioning two of your favorite Last Kisses. I’m always interested to find out what readers particularly enjoy. Sometimes it lines up with my own favorites and other times I’m surprised. Either way, good to know!
My pleasure, John. Those aren’t my only favorites, just ones that relate to this situation.
And I’ll tell you what they are (#10 will SHOCK you) just as soon as the word balloon is pointed directly at me, and only me. 😉
