Morally
Dubious Heroine
Hello, and thanks for having me on your
blog!
The heroine Abby in my latest release, Love & Other Lies, is a compulsive
liar.
I had the idea for her years ago, but I had
to work up the courage to write a morally dubious heroine. From what I’ve
noticed, romance readers don’t like heroines that aren’t good for the hero. I’m
including myself in that generalisation. I mean, the hero is our man – so the heroine needs to be worthy
to receive his love on our behalf ;-)
But Abby called to me, and finally, I wrote
her story. Now, I’m so happy that she’s found contentment.
Before writing, I asked myself, what would
be the most unsuitable match for a (reformed) compulsive liar? Because I’m not
going to make it easy on her. She has a past of lying – she’s got to suffer for
love! And along came Rue.
A really, really good guy.
Abby is terrified of screwing up someone’s
life again, let alone the life of a decent, honest man. He’s the worst possible
man to share chemistry with (and boy, do they share chemistry). He thinks the
best of people, so never suspects that she’s hiding a dark secret.
I’m not saying he’s a pushover. He’s just a
gorgeous beta hero!
My writing buddies find Abby intriguing and
strangely relatable. Despite her morally questionable past of lying, I do feel
that she deserves Rue’s love.
Do you have trouble accepting characters
whose morals have slipped in the past? Or does it all come down to what
motivated them? I’d love your thoughts!
