Review: Interesting take on a very naive lead

one's always read before stories where our heroine is unrealistically naive. i will admit this is the very first time I actually bought it! of course, her naivete ends up grating on your nerves at one point like you have no idea, but you can't help but be a tiny teensy bit endeared to her by it. I LOVED that the first thing the hero did was try to laid in open who he was, so no one can really say he was hiding his identity -VERY nice change of the cliche- but other than that there's little out of the ordinary in there.SPOILERS BELOWI think the only thing I didn't like was that they had sex before getting married. I've read easily a dozen of books from this author so I know she likes her saucy scenes and i'm usually ok with it, but this is the only one where I didn't quite believe it fitted with the info we were told before (Kate prized her repute and this doesn't seem to fir her ideas of romance- i really can't see her getting so into it she'd just blank out to just do it in the bushes while it rains), and if you REALLY needed a steamy scene, they could have had non penetrative sex or frotting or something, she would have been equally compromised (would she even *know* she couldn't get pregnant from that, if he ended between her thighs?) so... yeah. Just seemed like a sad waste of an opportunity for something different.
