Reviews are in!
I'm so excited-I'm starting to see the reviews trickle in for HIGHLAND OBSESSION. Here's what people are saying about this book:
"…uses a love triangle to explore not only the possibility of loving more than one person but the bonds of male friendship and how obsession warps the soul. All these strong themes are well handled in this satisfying read."
4 Stars, RT Book Reviews Magazine
"A fantastic balance of erotic detail and deep emotional connection. This one is going on my keeper shelf."

Rules for Women
I'm researching scandalous marriages today and came across a lecture entitled "On Woman" delivered by Colonel Willyams at the Cornwall Literary and Philosophical Society in 1819.
The good colonel spends some time extolling the virtues of women, but then turns to their more despicable qualities. Then he says he's set up some "rules and regulations" for women that he intends to get passed as an act of parliament. For women who break these rules, he suggests a "female court martial" made up of "gent

Congrats to Jessica M., who won (per random.org) my most recent contest! She gets a copy of A HINT OF WICKED by me, a copy of HIGHLAND OBSESSION also by me (but writing as Dawn Halliday, lol), and a bunch of author goodies.
Thanks to all who entered the contest! I asked about online sites that you go to for book information and your entries introduced me to several brand-new-to-me sites!

Highland Obsession releases tomorrow!
Ahhh…HIGHLAND OBSESSION. It's a love triangle like A HINT OF WICKED…but different. A touch more erotic, with two hotheaded Highland men and one very determined woman. I LOVED writing this book! I'm so thrilled about its release!

Really? Hmmm.
I just found this while doing my endless research about servants' lives.
It has been frequently observed by travellers and men of experience that comfort is a term only understood in England and scarcely applicable to the habits of any other nation.
From:
The Servant's Guide and Family Manual
By Katherine Golden Bitting
Collection on Gastronomy (Library of Congress, 1831)
I have to say, I love the vanity of the English during this period!
So…hmmm. What do you think? Was she right?

F.A.Q.
I love getting reader emails. Thanks so much to all of you who have emailed me about A HINT OF WICKED!
By far, the most common question I'm receiving in emails lately, is: When will A TOUCH OF SCANDAL be out?
Answer: April, 2010.
It seems like a long way away. I have to admit, I'd love it if it were to release next month (even though I haven't finished copyedits yet, lol!). But on the other hand, I know April will be here before we know it.
And I have a special treat to show all of you today:
