We've all "met" her in romance novels: the heroine who is Too Stupid to Live
(or TSTL, for short). I read a novel recently that I really loved--except for
one scene where the heroine had a TSTL moment. The book was good enough, and
the TSTL moment came late enough, that I was able to forgive the author and
still enjoy the book. I'll even buy her next one. But how I wish I could have
been her editor for just a few minutes and convinced her to change that one
scene.

Some of the women would be some of both.Guys are not suppose to be stupid. They are the hero and nothing can stop them. The story lines I hate is they meet and are madly in love with each other and then they go on page after page of fighting, leaving, tears, storms ect.Finally in the end she falls into his arms as if she'd been there for the entire book. Waste of good talent on the writters part.
