Probably being in an all-girls school helped me stay away from the thoughts of going out with any boys. Haha!

I imagine someone who doesn't regularly work with sex crimes might not be up to date on the whole orgasm/rape issue (heck, many in the general public probably don't realize it!)--so I can appreciate the realism.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-51694260661937493992011-08-27T06:44:55.160-07:002011-08-27T06:44:55.160-07:00Thanks so much for reading and reviewing my work! ...Thanks so much for reading and reviewing my work! I've heard from hundreds of readers, but you are the first person to mention the orgasm/rape issue. I wrote the scenes to reflect a realistic response from law enforcement. I'm sorry I didn't take the time to correct it. There was so much going on in the story. :)L.J.

Luckily his interest in girls is still relatively innocent. I imagine your daughter is in good hands with you as her mother. While you can't protect her from everything, I think your involvement and guidance in her life will impact her choices in a positive way.<br /><br /><b>Heather</b> - Like Sandy, I don't even want to think about my little girl having sex--of course, I have a ways to go before she's 13--or like your daughter, 15. It'll come all too fast, I'm afraid! Hopefully she (and all our daughters) will hold off until they are much older. Much much older. LOL<br /><br />I doubt most people will be bothered by the whole orgasm/rape issue I had with the book, but it was hard for me to get past it.<br /><br /><br /><b>Lola</b> - I thought so! I look forward to reading more of the series. :-)<br /><br /><b>Kathleen</b> - Crime fiction novels don't always lend themselves to good book club picks, but I think you are right about this one. There's a lot in it that would be worthy of discussing!<br /><br /><b>Kathy</b> - I don't think any of us want to think of young people in that light--but it's a reality we shouldn't ignore. <br /><br /><b>Samantha</b> - It was interesting! :-)Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-78404896066720992522011-08-24T17:36:34.992-07:002011-08-24T17:36:34.992-07:00This sounds like a really interesting read!

The orgasm thing really niggles though, so I can see why it made you a little upset. I can also agree with Sandy. My daughter is 15, and I think I need her to wait a little bit before she has sex!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-89755471013685453442011-08-23T03:45:59.562-07:002011-08-23T03:45:59.562-07:00NOOOOO!

Right now, she is staying away from the boys and focusing on her studies, but who knows when that will change. The premise seems like it would be keep you on the edge of your seat, but it is too bad the book got that one important fact about rape incorrect.Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.com
