It's England, it's cold, and according to every other book I've read, she would have been in a nightgown. ![]() A young virgin would not have been sleeping nude in her bed. I read Regency romances all the time and the dialogue and action was just not realistic to the time period. I mean it's not porn, but I can't figure out why the author started out afraid to use sexual words when by the end of the book, she was using "tits" and had an innocent virgin kissing a "cock" during her first experience. And come to find out, this is far from clean. "She got a 'feeling' when he was around." Even the clean romances I've read don't say that. ![]() We got it the first time.Īnd what's with the "feelings" everyone is getting? It's even written that way.
