I write to reassure myself that reality really is survivable. Between traffic jams and children’s sporting schedules, there is romance lurking for anyone with the imagination to find it.
Coming June 2009 from Kensington Brava
A deception brought them together . . . But nothing can tear them apart
IN BED WITH A STRANGER is the epitome of why historical romances are my favorite genre to read. Mary Wine has thoroughly captured the Scottish way of life in such a way that I can picture the scenes in my mind. Scottish warriors abound, and Brodick McJames should have been nicknamed, "Brodick McDreamy." His treatment of Anne was honest and while not timid, he definitely took his time to make her feel every single facet of their love making. He treated her as if he cherished her, even knowing that something was not the way it should be. He showed her unconditional respect and love. Anne never expected to be treated so honorably by her ‘husband’ and fought her feelings for him as hard as she could. Brodick was just too enticing and Anne adored him. The situation with her deception weighed heavily on Anne’s mind, not because she was deceiving her husband but because she was lying to the man she loved more than anything.
Scottish highlands, kilts, rugged and virile warriors – there is nothing about IN BED WITH A STRANGER that I didn’t like. Just to be sure, I went back and read it a second time. Mary Wine’s first Brava release is sure to be a hit – I highly recommend IN BED WITH A STRANGER. It is simply extraordinary.
