And Lorelei is putting the screws to him.
From The Gripping Beast:
He had never before failed his duty. But he could not help the feeling, in spite of all logical reason, that he was failing her. He had thought to have her and fulfill his duty too. But as the days wore on and she failed to accept her role, his duty and his desire fought a war within him. If duty lay one way and his heart another, how was he to choose and keep his honor?
It’s RTB columnist day. I talk about 5 years of erotic romance and the impact on the genre. I’ll tell you the impact on me. When I reread this ms. it was clear to me that I’d held back on the eroticism and it hurt the story. Without those scenes, the emotional impact wasn’t there. The above paragraph is from an erotic scene. There is Erik’s inner conflict in a nutshell and he can’t walk away from it.
Oh, yeah, and Elizabeth’s Wolf is as good as all the recommendations make it sound. Lora Leigh had me crying in the first chapter. Didn’t get very far, but I’m loving it.
