Yup... I would worry too! :) I can't even watch a sex scene on tv with my parents in the same room!

I am sure your daughters will be proud of your work. Congratulations on the new book!
(
Maureen Emmons 4:50pm May 6, 2013)

I usually only skim through those scenes anyway.

One writer to another - you're braver than I am! I told my daughters they couldn't read my latest book. The oldest happily obliged, saying she "didn't want to know what was in her mother's imagination." Well, when you put it like that... Leslie - your book sounds fabulous. Can't wait to read it. All the best to you!

"What A Mother Knows" sounds like an interesting novel. I love how you contemplated
the acceptance of the book. I would feel slightly embarrassed if my daughter(s) (if I
had any) read it too. Not something you want to sit down and talk about it, but you
definitely want to know if your writing (specially the sex part) was believable.
Congratulations on the new book.

sounds like a great read>>thanks for the chance..
(
Jennifer Beck 6:26pm May 6, 2013)

I'm not sure how old your daughters are, if they're teenagers and old enough to be interested in reading books of this type yet or would be curious because their mother wrote it. I wouldn't be embarrassed to explain to them that it's fiction and many authors write in the same way in their books, and then let them decide after that, if they choose to read it (maybe, when they're older...like grown-up and married! LOL!!! Sounds like a good book, and I want to read it!

This book sure sounds haunting but oh so good. Looking forward to reading it. Just cannot imagine not knowing where you child is no matter what age he or she may be.

Love the cover! Thanks for the chance to win it.

Not sure how old your daughters are but I'm thinking they read all your books. Eventually they'll realize what sex is if they haven't already and you all sound pretty close so I think it will all work out just fine, thanks!
(
Jennifer Thompson 9:11pm May 6, 2013)

When the time comes, your daughters probably won't think too much about it - this is mom's job, but any future son-in-laws might look uncomfortable at holiday dinners.

Carla Carlson 9:20pm May 6, 2013)

I have to say that I'm not familiar with your books, although I don't have kids of my own. That doesn't mean that I don't care about my Sister's kids, or the kids that belong to my friends!! They become my extended family, since having not having any of my own was God's plan. My interest is definately peaked, and I would love to read your book, and pass it on to others, if this book is not meant for me. I know plenty of women who have kids, and would probably get a kick out of your book!! Congratulations!!
(

Sounds like a an interesting book.

I had to laugh!! What a dilemma I think.
(
Mary Preston 12:03pm May 7, 2013)

A parents want to know what is going on with their children's lives. The children never want to know what is going on with their parents' lives especially if the parents are having sex. It is too much information (TMI). I know my sisters and I would joke about our parents' sex life and would always say they are old people. If we happen to catch them even kissing with tongue, we come to the moment of either saying to them "Get a room." or even exaggerates that we have been traumatized and blinded for life as young adults. It's not right for old people to be having sex from our point of view. We cannot accept the fact that they are having sex and yet we know where babies come from. But the reality of it is, parents are people too. They feel and do things that we young people do. It won't be long before our children will be thinking the same thing of us.

Our parents taught us the best they can and with life lessons, we know the difference between realities and fantasies and have to respect them for that.

Isn't that sometimes what makes it so hard, wondering what a parent, child,
cousin, friend will think? What if they think it's about THEM??
(
Penny Mettert 5:31am May 7, 2013)

I think sometimes we worry for nothing.
(
Rita Wray 9:30am May 7, 2013)

Just remind them it's ficion.
(

Well done for bring true to yourself and your craft. if your daughters don't appreciate your work, that could happen over a violent scene, a balancing chequebooks scene, a car maintenance scene, anything. If they don't like the love scene they can skip to the next page.
(

THANKS! So,it turns out, my mother admits she skimmed it, one daughter says she read it but gave no details, and my other daughter, 21, came to my standing-room-only book signings this week, so she's proud and her friends are ordering it - and now she's about to read it. So I just haven't mentioned it yet. Partly because it's okay and she's an adult, but mainly because there are 300 pages more to the story!
Happy reading!
Leslie

Once I thought about things like: why such information is for free here? Because when you write a book then at least on selling a book you get a percentage. Thank you and good luck on informing people more about it!

(

I really like the dear information you offer in your articles. I'm able to bookmark your site and show the kids check out up here generally. Im fairly positive theyre likely to be informed a great deal of new stuff here than anyone else!

(
Hasaam Iqbal 5:51am October 4, 2014)

Reading is one of the favorite hobbies and I also like to read the articles which gives the details about authors. Romantic novels are always very interesting and I usually read such type of novels. Thanks for sharing such good article. Thanks a lot. lip moisturizer
