Georgette Heyer's warmest novel

Another one of Georgette Heyer's modern romances, Instead of the Thorn is about a girl who is raised to be very ignorant and naive. This becomes a very large problem when she gets married and has had no one to warn her of what 'being married' means, so she finds any kind of physical contact to be repulsive.<BR/><BR/>There's nothing explicit or raunchy but considering the subject it is very 'warm' for a Georgette Heyer.<BR/><BR/>The ending made me blush.
