"You're going to tell me, I hope, that you had a slumber party with an out-of-town girlfriend."
"I'm twenty-eight. I graduated from slumber parties with girlfriends to having sex with men."
"Please." ____ pressed a hand to his heart. "Let's just say you had a friend spend the night. This is the sort of thing a father needs to take in stages."

Well, since Nora has now published 200 books, and every one has a heroine in it, and every heroine has a father, do you think you could help us out with a book type?

[IDFAN]

I'll post hints, including book type, it this is still up when I get home from work.

Is this Emma talking to her father in bed of roses when she goes to a family dinner and they take a walk in the garden and she starts to tell him about her and Jack.

I'm not 100% on this though

Nope, sorry.

Hint: This is from a single.

And here's a bit more:

"Please." ____ pressed a hand to his heart. "Let's just say you had a friend spend the night. This is the sort of thing a father needs to take in stages. Coffee, darling? That's a good girl."
"All right, all right, but there are things you need to know about... my overnight guest." She got out her bag of beans, poured some in her grinder.
"I already know the most important thing. He's not good enough for my baby. Nobody could be."
"This is so complicated. He's working for ___________ _____________."
"So, he's got a straight job, a nine-to-fiver." _____ shrugged his broad shoulder. "I can forgive that one."

I believe this is from Remember When aka Hot Rocks - Laine is talking to her father, Big Jack

[IDFAN]

Could you give a bit more scene description or page number?

[IDFAN]

Just a reminder, this is still up for grabs.

[Donna]

The quote is from Hot Rocks/rRemember When.
Jack to Lanie, when he comes to visit her. During their conversation, Lanie suddenly remembers that Max is upstairs taking a shower; they had spent the night together.
Jack says the 1st quote, Lanie replies with the 2nd quote. Then Jack counters with the 3rd quote.

[IDFAN]

Kimmers, your answer was correct, but not detailed enough.
Rule #6 states: Winning guess names the book and the page number OR fully describes the scene--who, what, where, when. Give as much detail as you can about what is happening before, after or during the quote.

Donna, you're right and you're up.
