Series: Thesaurus for Romance Writers

""Voluptuous Verbs by Liz Adams will be on my bookshelf as I write the next Steamy scene in my Tavonesi Series. Always love a great thesaurus!"" -USA Today Bestselling author Pamela Aares

""The Thesaurus for Romance Writers series is perfect for any author who wants to write steamy scenes that will make readers reach for their lover (or lovers!). The series is not just a set of well-categorized synonyms. It also contains tips and templates on how to write compelling, spicy scenes."" -Chloe Adler, Author of the Tales from the Edge series

A Reference Guide for Writing Intimate Lovemaking

Voluptuous Verbs: Synonyms to Spice Up Your Steamy Scenes is for any writer who has a sex scene in their story and wants to be sure the quality of the scene matches the experience they are trying to convey. If you want to convey a subtle, intimate connection between the characters, this book can help you find the language to achieve that. Want to make the reader experience an insatiable lust that requires hands-on reading? This thesaurus has just the words you're looking for. Genres can include anything from spicy romance to paranormal tales, to thrillers, to sci-fi adventures, as long as there is at least one scene of physical intimacy.

""Should be in every author's toolbox!""

Why settle for mundane descriptions like ""she took off his pants"" when you can spice things up? Replace it with, ""She unbuckled, unzipped, and unsteadied him."" Find verbs that penetrate your scenes and leave your readers panting. This thesaurus includes writing tips on how to use the bedroom scene to develop the protagonist's inner growth, their inner and outer consequences, the relationship's consequences, the subtext of the scene, and the wild card.

Who this book is not for:

This thesaurus is not for writers of sweet romance nor any genre that doesn't include scenes of physical intimacy. Also, profanity and naughty words coat the pages, including words that can sound aggressive and negative. If such language may upset you, this is not the book for you.
