L.A. Hilden (lahilden) | 44 comments Hello everyone, I am in the middle of editing one of my historical romance novels and I have a question. I tend to not include sex scenes into my stories unless I feel they are essential. I have three sex scenes in this book, and as I'm reading I realize I have another detailed scene toward the end. I know this last love making session isn't necessary. The heroine and hero are back together and they have made love and are now returning to go see the hero's mother who hates the heroine and her family. Do they really need to make love again?

Now here's the question. As I mentioned this scene is detailed more than the others, but regardless, I wonder, should I cut it? It's only four pages.
