Hey rocnlocs~Thanx for binge-reading and voting on "Crissa's Mate." I'm pleased you find it engaging, but also sorry you find the romantic element moving slowly. In fairness to Crissa, she is right out of high school, socially awkward, and we can believe virginal. Part of what I feel makes this book resonate with so many females is just that reticence and the anticipation of what they are waiting for. I encourage your comments going forward.
