And there are a lot of woman out there who might be virgins for similar reasons without being weirdos, as the media tries to present. It wouldn't make sense for her to be that way, but it makes perfect sense for her to be a virgin. Morgan wrote one who is identifiably modern without being promiscuous.

I like a virgin heroine, and I like that Ms. I liked the fresh, modern feel of this story, without throwing out the things I value in a HP. I think I might create a new shelf, the 'He never even knew what hit him' shelf, because that's what happened to Mr. I was glad that he did work past his preconceived notions to give her the credit she was due. He was poisoned by his past experience with her and his issues with her father. Damon couldn't see past the outside, the fae, energetic beauty of Polly, to believe that she was just as capable as he was. So my main issues were with how Damon treated Polly. I have to say I liked his business ethics a lot (except for the hot desk idea. He just wasn't touchy feely about it like Polly. Damon came on hard and tough, like he didn't care, but he also cared about his employees. People who love strong and deep, and believe in doing the right thing. Who deal with circumstances and fix what's wrong in the best way possible. They are both goal-oriented, decisive people who get the job done. Honestly though, Polly and Damon aren't that different. It's interesting how an insecure childhood can shape two different people in two entirely different ways. Fortunately, as it should be with any good romance book, I came to like and respect him, to see that he was a Control Freak more than anything. Wish more bosses were that way in real life. Loving, hardworking, intelligent, strong, and willing to stand up for what's right. I can totally see why one of my GRs friends has so much love for Polly.
