Comments on Books with Virgin Heroes - page 1

Sin is an unforgettable, wonderful hero.

Colin is awesome.

My second favorite hero is Samuel Gerard.

Conrad is so hot.

Judd might be Psy and Ice cold, but he sure does melt for Brenna and he takes charge in the bedroom.

Really great idea for a list, Rae. Bless you!

Thanks for voting, Danielle! I'm really glad to see your ratings on the ones you've read. Makes me really eager to read these books! :-D

You know me. I have all kinds of love for the virgin heroes.

Here is link to a great list of romance novels that feature virgin heroes. I had fun just looking through it and now can't wait to re-read some of my old favorites!

That list was my shopping list, Lindsey. Most of the ones on there were really good too. I am always on the lookout for these guys. :)

That so rocks! Thanks for posting that, Lindsey! I agree Danielle. What a shopping list!

This is an awesome list! I love virgin heroes. I already had a lot of these on my TBR list and have already read a few, but I still found several new ones to add. Can't wait to read about more of these yummy guys.;-)

I have found that I have really liked most of the virgin hero books I've read. :)

Thanks to everyone who've contributed. This is a great set of books! I can't wait to dive in myself. :-)

thanks guys... amazing list

Fabulous list! I LOVE virgin heroes. But Susan Grant's How to Lose an Extraterrestrial in 10 Days is missing from the list... it's a scifi romance that features a virgin hero.

Hi Rhianna. I have the Susan Grant book in my list of books to read. I never get enough of the virgin heroes.

Should be on the list now. :-) Feel free to vote for your favorites! Thanks to all who've voted so far. Please feel free to add more if you like. :-)

This list should probably omit kids' books (I see some Harry Potter on here) since they most always feature virgins!

Does everyone else agree to adult fiction only? I'm willing to clean it up a bit if everyone is okay with that. I would suggest removing Twilight and the Harry Potter series at least. I see this list as being more for adult romance genre fiction. What does everyone else think?

I agree that Harry Potter doesn't belong. Also, the hero of The Secret Pearl is not a virgin.

Who exactly is a virgin in ?
And I've added:

He wasn't? Are you sure?

Anybody figured out who the virgin was in Bitten?

Ah okay.
Anyway: Bitten should go off the list cause Clay sure was no virgin in that one.

Did some googling and it seems to confirm that the hero in No Rest for the Wicked was just celibate, not a virgin. Yes, I am very anal. ;-)

LOL. Unfortunately I can't delete the book.
It just really annoys me that someone nominated Bitten. :grumble grumble:

I can delete it - are we sure Bitten doesn't have a virgin hero? I'm pretty sure but I could get in trouble for just arbitrarily deleting a book from a listopia list so I want to be 100%.

Also... does Lover Enshrined count? Didn't Phury have sex with a hooker in a bathroom in a previous book?

I am positive that Clay wasn't a virgin in Bitten. I am almost sure he had sex before Elena. I think I read it in Men of the Otherworld. I'll be home tomorrow, I'll look it up then.

Oh and Nichole, I'll look up Phury's little adventure too.

Nichole, thanks to the very helpful gals at the Kelley Armstrong boards I have learned the following: our sexy sociopath Clay was indeed a virgin when he met Elena (why do I keep wanting to write that name with an h?)! BUT he wasn't a virgin anymore in Bitten cause he'd been with Elena for over 5 or 10 years. So... it's your call to keep or delete the book.

K, I deleted The Secret Pearl and Bitten.
I hope you guys feel confident in that because there's all kinds of warnings when you delete a book from a Listopia list. :) Even when I'm 100% sure it makes me nervous.

LOL, I'll be sleeping with the lights on tonight if I were you....;)

You can feel confident about The Secret Pearl, I looked it up. Can give you a page number if necessary ;-)

K, No Rest For the Wicked deleted.

I tried to add Mistress of Rome by Kate Quinn. Thea popped Arius' cherry. >.>

The heroine in Rebecca really wasn't a virgin very long as she and Max got married almost immediately.

I guess the point is they got married?????

I had fun going down the lists too but found I have read none of them! I guess I prefer wicked ladies!

Here's a new one: Lysander in "The Darkest Angel" by Gena Showalter. From Heart of Darkness

I don't think any of Judith Macnaught's heroes are either virgins or inexperienced.

I agree!!

Why is Rebecca on the list?

I've read Rebecca many times and I can't think of any way it belongs on this list.

I keep seeing this book on ALL the virgin heroes list. So weird!!

The internet is like that -- things get imported and copied and errors multiply exponentially.

The Shattered Rose-Jo Beverly (he's technically not a v but he only ever sleeps with his wife), Lion's Legacy-Suzanne Barclay, Blackwind:Sean & Bronwyn-Charlotte Boyett Compo, The Preacher's Daughter-Cheryl St John, Taken by a Texan-Lass Small (I'm mentioning it cause he's a v BUT the book is awful lol), The Bridegroom's Vow-Rebecca Winters, The Lone Texan-Jodi Thomas. They are all V heroes. PS-I'm pretty sure, almost possitive that Kiss Me Annabel-Eloisa James hero wasn't a v. He just hadn't been with anyone since he was young. I can remember thinking, "wait, the list said he was a v but he's not"-don't quote me on that though. wow, this is long. happy reading!

While I love book number 102 on this list, nick Gentry was not a virgin, he had hired a prostitute to teach him all about sex and was quit knowledgeable when he meets Charlotte. I reread this book at least once a year, it's great but the hero is not virginal in the least.

It's been a while since I read 'The Darknest Night' by Gena Showalter, but I'm pretty sure I read a scene where Maddox said that he has had sex with the women who came looking for Paris. I'm not 100% sure. I never thought he was virgin.
Does anyone know if I'm right or not?

The hero of Shelter Mountain isn't a virgin... He is just inexperienced...

You're right. ;)
