Oh shit. I forgot to mention one of the most important things, haha. Thankfully, SexAddict is here and right on business. The key concept that caught my eyes is this:

If you notice her loosening up a bit, be sure to acknowledge it and verify that it feels good and invite her to keep it going.
This is very important. Be sure to acknowledge, validate, and reward the shy girl when she is opening up to you, because this shows to her that this is the behaviour you expect. Not much more to add. Only one thing.
You have said it was an "ex-flame". I'm not quite familiar with english slang phrases, eventhough my grammar is pretty good. I'm not sure whether this means that you two had some real things going on, or just sort of "felt it". Because if it's the former, then you can basically ignore almost everything that I have said in my previous post, and just follow SexAddict's advice.
Peace,
In$tinct.
