So it's perfectly fine to have the scene you describe from the hero's POV. In fact, the only way to describe the fainting scene in the heroine's POV would be for her to be talking about with someone else later because she wouldn't know what happened while she was unconscious. The only caveat is that if you write this scene in the hero's POV, you have other scenes throughout the book in his POV as well. You can have the heroine's POV more of the time, but I think it would be jarring to have the whole story in one POV and have just one scene in a different POV. Anu,
