Quick CONTEST!

We're going to the fancy footwork of a Highland Jig type of contest ... okay, not really, but it is going to be fast, fast, FAST!

On September 18th the people of Scotland go to the voting booth to decide on Independence.  The choices are Yes, they want to leave United Kingdom or No, they want everything to stay the same. Tough question to answer.

In December 2008, almost 6 years ago, my book Highland Heat was released by Ellora's Cave, and has been a fan favorite ever since.  How can I make such a claim?  After all these years readers maintain Hamish Buchanan's secret.  There's been a spoiler here and there but generally they are ignored.  I adore the sexy Highlander and his unique qualities. To me, one of the best things is when a reader sends me something special w/his likeness or a hint about him on them ... love!

Now, I have no idea how Hamish would vote, it's personal, but I do have a Tilly Greene tote bag with goodies from my Christmas visit to Scotland and something I bought from a favored shop that reminded me of the book.  Here's a little hint ... he can't stop grinning because of what he's sitting on :-)

All you need to do is enter through the Rafflecopter, below ... done, easy peasy pudding pie.  There are three ways to add extra oomph as well.  A winner will be picked once I wake up on the 18th!

So, go, enter, you have until midnight on the 17th!

eBook Talk!

Today, Hamish Buchanan from "Highland Heat" is Slipping Between the Sheets with Alyssa Brooks.

Gasp!

What a surprise, I know, but don't worry about him spending time in bed with another woman, he's there being interviewed. I suggest you head over and check out what the naughty Scotsman might reveal. It could come in very handy for an upcoming contest - details to come later today.

Ms. Brooks has an ebook out called "Taking Tara", which is a part of Ellora's Cave Moderne [or Contemporary] line. The blurb says:

Six months he’s been watching her. Wanting her. And now he’ll finally claim her…

Despite her penchant for bad singing and bad breakups, Ayden’s non-too-private neighbor Tara is everything he desires—strong, sexy, wild. Just the type of woman a geeky guy like him could never get. Never, that is, unless he becomes someone else. The kind of man she’ll say yes to. The alpha dog buried deep inside, ready to claim his woman and prove she’s his, forever.

Tell me your fantasies…

Still on the hunt for that perfect guy, Tara goes through men like water but never quenches her thirst. Then the hot new neighbor corners her in the elevator. Mother always said not to talk to strangers…but kissing them? Totally explainable. Revealing her innermost fantasies? Totally irrelevant. It’s not as if he’s actually going to take her, tie her up, kidnap her and whisk her away to spankings, threesomes and more.

But as Ayden warns… Careful, Tara, some fantasies do come true.

Oh my! This sounds like a can't be missed read that should come with the warning that it may burn up your ebook device so have a fire extinguisher handy.

"Taking Tara" by Alyssa Brooks is available at Ellora's Cave.

UPDATED: For some reason, Photobucket has taken away "Taking Tara" as a cover. It isn't even remotely bad, but I suggest you go over to Ellora's Cave, take a look at it and decide for yourself.

Hump Day Reflections!

When I create my characters, usually I look for someone or something to inspire my imagination to build upon.

Highland Heat has recently been released and this month's Eye Candy on my website is images that inspired his appearance - mainly his hair was what I needed help with. Anyway, the man, Gabriel Aubrey, is one of the men I used for Hamish Buchanan.

Head over to my Eye Candy page and see who else I spent time with while writing Highland Heat.

Hamish Buchanan is visiting Wild on Books Blog!

This notoriously private man is opening up about what makes him different from every other human being.

Head over to Wild on Books Blog and ask a question or two, he's actually up for answering.
