One of my guilty pleasures is reading trashy romance novels. The majority of these novels stick to the same format, with sex scenes that range from tepid to the written version of simulated porn from Skinemax–nothing too raunchy or taboo. But thanks to an editorial oversight, Susan Andersen’s new ebook, Baby, I’m Yours, has a scene that delves into a kinky side that her readers were probably unprepared for.
This is the offending line from page 293 of the book: “He stiffened for a moment but then she felt his muscles loosen as he shitted on the ground.” Hey, for some people, that is romantic! But the word was supposed to be “shifted,” that changes things a bit. (via)
