I think it's part novelty and part reliving the best parts of the "first time."<br /><br />Thanks for joining us on the blog Barbara!Skylar Kadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07820959078583565408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334971464359338872.post-69267618616172829322013-07-09T23:30:04.218-04:002013-07-09T23:30:04.218-04:00 One of my heroines is a virgin for most of her bo... One of my heroines is a virgin for most of her book. And I think the love story would have lost some of its impact without that factor. However, at the same time, that aspect of the story was never more than a subplot--one of many in that book.<br /><br />She was definitely trouble--not for me, for the other characters in the book--but her virginity had absolutely nothing to do with that! <br /><br /> PG Fortehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00819909187492632526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-334971464359338872.post-11552843148543108112013-07-09T19:09:24.976-04:002013-07-09T19:09:24.976-04:00Hi, Barbara, welcome to the Naughty Nine.

She had serious trauma issues from the past that kept her a virgin, so it really worked for that character. I think virginity is like any other part of a character. If it's consistent logical, and makes you understand and sympathize with the character, it's just part of who that person is. I think your story sounds wonderful, I can't wait to read it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15729977005525895384noreply@blogger.com
