My WIP is a regency era (regency accurate) historical romance. I would say it is more in the vein of Jane Austen than Amanda Quick.
There is a lot of sexual tension between the hero and heroine, but there has been nothing more than a kiss and they do not actually realize their true feelings for each other and agree to marry until the end.
Because of the style in which I have written it, it seems like it would not be true to the story to have a sex scene at the end - sort of like if at the end of Pride and Prejudice there was an Elizabeth and Darcy sex scene - and yet I worry that readers might thing it was building to this the entire time.
Does anyone have any feedback on something like this?
