Luckily, Sarah Ni Riain had been thinking something similar as she dreamt on Wednesday night that Clare hurler Darach Honan had penned a novel with an absolutely fantastic title. https://twitter.com/froodie/status/692675811342708736 The wonderfully honest admission didn't garner that much traction until Rick O'Shea and Mike McLoughlin got involved then, BOOM, we had a trending hashtag which led to some kneeslappers of tweets throughout Thursday afternoon. https://twitter.com/rickoshea/status/692677825577500673 https://twitter.com/zuroph/status/692672857965498368 https://twitter.com/zuroph/status/692673009564422144 The entries varied from the smutty to the classy and just like all great romance novel titles, the steamier the better. Here are some of our favourites. https://twitter.com/Shrednek/status/692683492757524480 https://twitter.com/damog7/status/692695083230052352 https://twitter.com/TheKavOfficial/status/692679716734656512 https://twitter.com/Shrednek/status/692688256689913857 https://twitter.com/KerryComedian/status/692703732623118336
