When Nicole Hardy's eye-opening "Modern Love" column appeared in the New York Times, the response from visitors was overpowering. Hardy's essay, which exposed the discord between being true to herself as a woman and remaining true to her Mormon trust, struck a chord with women coast-to-coast. Now in her funny, intimate, and thoughtful memoir, Nicole Hardy explores how she arrived, at age 35, to a crossroads regarding her trust and her identification. During her child years and throughout her 20s, Nicole performed definite conviction in her trust. But as she aged from the Church's "singles ward" and entered her 30s, she battled to merge the life she envisioned for herself with the Mormon ideal of homemaker, partner, and mom. Confessions of your Latter-Day Virgin chronicles the remarkable lengths Nicole went to so that they can reconcile her human needs with her religious life - soaring in the united states for schedules with Mormon men, taking on salsa dancing as a source for physical contact, even moving to Grand Cayman, where the ocean and scuba provided some solace. But neither secular pursuits nor cathedral guidance could help Nicole plan the dilemma she would eventually face: a crisis of trust that induced her to question everything she'd grown up believing. Within the tradition of the memoirs Devotion and Mennonite in just a little Black Dress, Confessions of your Latter-day Virgin is a mesmerizing and wholly relatable profile of 1 woman's hard-won mission to find love, popularity, and pleasure - on her own terms.
