February...Valentine's Day comes with the &lt;i&gt;obligation&lt;/i&gt; to immerse ourselves in romance. &lt;br&gt;Ah, suffer we will, if we must. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How about a little paranormal for this Valentine's Day go around? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/39156-36159/Labyrinth200x300.jpg?a=88" style="border: 0px solid;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yes, magic exists. Not the backwater voodoo witches practice where 
Mississippi Deputy Sheriff Margot Saulnier grew up. But the age-old 
black magic a woman weaves around a man that draws him under her spell. 
The kind Margot’s best friend used to kill her husband…and get away with
 it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Margot chases her friend to Scotland, determined to prove 
her guilty of murder. No one will stop Margot. Not the SAS agent sent to
 watch her…and not the Scottish lord legend says murders his lovers when
 they cannot free him from the spell that has imprisoned him in Castle 
Morrison for three hundred years.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;He’s just a legend.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And magick doesn’t exist.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/39156-36159/WhenARoseBloomsAllRomanceFina.jpg?a=29" style="border: 0px solid;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;On the fifth year anniversary of Margaret Moncreiffe's death, her 
husband Nathaniel kneels at her grave, asking the questions he fears 
were answered the night she died of a mysterious fever. As the evening 
progresses, however, a flesh and blood woman enters the battlefield he 
has created around his heart, forcing him to choose between life among 
the living, or life with nothing but memories of the dead.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/39156-36159/KWBornFirecoversm.jpg?a=12" style="border: 0px solid;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="black"&gt;Aspiring artist Kenna Lang can’t believe her luck in meeting the gorgeous Eric Grey.

Together they are explosive. Drawn together in an erotic joining, they become more than human. He shows her they descend from elements of air, water, earth, and fire. She’s fire, and he’s air.

&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Murder, deceit, and fraud pull Lady Arin Keith between these men.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;" face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;b&gt;

Which one will bed her, claim her...own her?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Excerpt--&lt;br&gt;&lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Pray, tell me,” he drawled, “have you come to bed me or murder me?” His eyes lit with wicked laughter. “Do not fear. I am prepared for either.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Fury swept through her. “I am no murderess!”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Then bed me, it is.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Her cheeks flushed hot as he strode toward her.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;She retreated another step. “W-what are you doing here?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;He stopped so close, she was forced to angle her head up to meet his gaze.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Do you not have business elsewhere?” She winced at the squeak in her voice.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Aye,” he replied distractedly.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“What sort of business?” &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Deryll reached behind her and lifted her braid over her shoulder. “The kind that does not concern you.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“What sort of business does not concern me? Sir Gewain is—”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Deryll’s head snapped up. “Nothing I cannot handle,” he finished.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;The heat in her cheeks spread through her belly as, gaze glued to hers, he lifted the end of her braid to his nose and breathed deeply. Airin’s heart pounded. Hands, calloused and brown from years in the sun, held the braid as if it were a fragile flower. He breathed deeply again, as though to inhale her very essence.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Is there any battle you cannot handle?” she asked.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Deryll shifted his gaze to her face. “I am a man, Airin. No man is invincible.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Her girlhood hero was invincible. The hero who always saved his lady from all harm, who knew when to bestow a kiss, and never pressed her into an uncomfortable situation. This man was anything but those things.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Deryll’s gaze dropped to her mouth. Would he kiss her?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“You may come out now, Cerdwin,” he said.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Airin blinked, and he raised a brow.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;The maid stepped from behind the door. “Forgive me, my lord. I did not mean to eavesdrop.” She edged toward the hallway.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Airin shot her a glare, then looked back at Deryll. “You knew all along she was there.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Course he did.” Cerdwin backed across the threshold. “‘Tis why he has not bedded you.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Airin riveted her gaze onto the maid in time to see the door close behind her. She narrowed her eyes on Deryll. “Step aside.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“You do not wish to be bedded?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;She rolled her eyes and reached to shove him aside. Her palm connected with the hard muscle of his chest. As if made of stone, he didn't move.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Airin yanked her hand back. “Do you intend to force me?” she demanded.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Both his brows rose. “Is that what you wish?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“You are mad.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“That is no answer.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“What I wish is of no consequence.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Not so,” he replied.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Indeed?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“I fulfilled your condition,” he said. “We have a bargain.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Her gaze rested on the scar running down his cheek. She fisted her hands at her sides. “Why you?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;He looked genuinely surprised, then laughed. “Who were you expecting?”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Not you.” What was wrong with her? She had turned into a shrew.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Anyone &lt;i&gt;but &lt;/i&gt;me?” he asked.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“I gave you no thought.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;He laughed again. “Lady, you know how to cut a man.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Airin gave him a recriminating look. “Do not play the wounded lover. I was a child when you left. You gave me no thought.”&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“I cared for you,” he replied.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“As a sister.” &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;“Mayhap, but that is eight years past. Today, I need no sister.” He slipped an arm around her waist and pulled her close.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Despite her efforts, her heart pounded as her breasts pressed into the hard lines of his chest. Their lips were a hair’s breadth apart, his breath a warm flutter against her cheek. Her nipples hardened and she closed her eyes. Embarrassment warmed her cheeks. He couldn't possibly miss her arousal. He pressed his hips against hers and she sucked in breath when the hard ridge of his cock rode against her belly. Heat flashed over her and fanned out from between her legs. The rogue was well aware of her desire.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Moist lips touched hers. Deryll’s flattened palms slid downward along the curve of her buttocks as he spread languorous kisses over her jaw and down her neck. His fingers gripped her rear and undulated her mound against his hard length. Pleasure tightened her belly. At the curve of neck and shoulder, he flicked his tongue. Shivers raced down her body and fueled the fire dampening her folds. Her knees weakened. She threw her arms around his neck, her head falling forward onto his shoulder. He groaned, the sound resonating in his chest and startling her. She jerked her head up. His eyes burned into hers in the instant before he kissed her, his fingers threading into the hair held tight against her head by the plait.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;His tongue traced the seam of her lips. She gasped, and he plunged inside. Airin's senses reeled. She had never so completely tasted a man's mouth—or had one taste her. His tongue swirled around hers in an odd dance that enticed her to lean into him. He crushed her closer, taking her breath into him as his tongue swept the recesses of her mouth, then sucked her tongue into his mouth. She gave a small cry and tried to jerk back, but he held her firm. Slowly, he teased, thrusting against her tongue, drawing her into her own rhythm, her own exploration of him.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;He shifted and a warm palm covered her breast. Airin shivered. Only a few hours ago she had wondered what his large hand would feel like on her breast. She recalled the look on his face, the fire burning in his eyes, and realized he'd read her mind. He broke the kiss and she startled from the sudden loss. His head dipped and his warm mouth covered the curve of breast visible above her bodice. She felt her eyes widen when his head moved downward and he sucked in the marbled nipple protruding against the fabric.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;Pleasure ripped through her. Airin cried out. She clutched his shoulders as he sucked. A string went taut between breast and the tiny nub she knew was her pleasure point. The earlier ache roared to life with a vengeance. A mental picture flashed of the hard cock that now pressed ever insistent against her flesh embedded inside her channel. A tremor rocked her body. In her imaginings she'd wondered what the male part of him was like, how it felt…its size. She hadn't thought it would be so…large. Could she take the mammoth rod? Her throat went dry at the possibility.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="text-indent: 0.5in;"&gt;His mouth broke from her breast and he straightened. "Is that what you expected from Bothwell?"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;b&gt;WWW.TARAHSCOTT.COM&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;b&gt;SO WHICH BOOK BOYFRIEND DO YOU PREFER, KNIGHTS, MEN IN KILTS, OR MAYBE THE MODERN SAS AGENT WHO HAS TO SAVE THE OCCASIONAL DAMSEL IN DISTRESS?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;LEAVE A COMMENT TO BE IN THE DRAWING TO WIN A COPY OF THE PENDULUM. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;NOW HOP ON OVER AND VISIT THE OTHER &lt;a href="http://readingbetweenthewinesbookclub.blogspot.com/2012/01/my-book-boyfriend-giveaway-hop.html#more" target="_blank" class=""&gt;BLOGS&lt;/a&gt; ON THE MY BOYFRIEND GIVEAWAY HOP&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;This contest is international&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Winners are chosen via random number generator. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Winners will be posted within 48 hours of end of event. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Winners are posted to this blog, so check back.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Good luck!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><category>Blog Hops</category><comments>http://tarahscott.tarahscott.com/2012/01/31/my-book-boyfriend-giveaway-hop-february-1-5.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">45deaa01-d4dc-4b6a-bf7f-ecb9546695bc</guid><pubDate>Wed, 01 Feb 2012 03:21:48 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>BUBBLE BATHS AND STEAMY ROMANCE WINNER</title><link>http://tarahscott.tarahscott.com/2012/01/30/bubble-baths-and-steamy-romance-winner.aspx?ref=rss</link><dc:creator>Tarah Scott</dc:creator><description>&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" face="Georgia"&gt;Congratulations to Patty!

The holidays are over and we're waiting for Spring flowers, and the tax man to send our refund so we can recover from the holidays. Heh heh. Ain't life grand? The weather here in NY has been spectacular. Very little snow, and temps that range from Christmas to Easter weather. I'll take it! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;How is the year starting out for everyone? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;My recent release is a paranormal/time travel with a love triangle that spans thee hundred years. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/39156-36159/ShawnLabyrinthFinal350.jpg?a=1" style="border: 0px solid;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" face="Georgia"&gt;Yes, magic exists. Not the backwater voodoo witches practice where 
Mississippi Deputy Sheriff Margot Saulnier grew up. But the age-old 
black magic a woman weaves around a man that draws him under her spell. 
The kind Margot’s best friend used to kill her husband…and get away with
 it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Margot chases her friend to Scotland, determined to prove 
her guilty of murder. No one will stop Margot. Not the SAS agent sent to
 watch her…and not the Scottish lord legend says murders his lovers when
 they cannot free him from the spell that has imprisoned him in Castle 
Morrison for three hundred years.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;He’s just a legend.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And magick doesn’t exist.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/font&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;Excerpt--&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“Ms. Saulnier.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;The deep male voice caused Margot to slow her walk along the east garden path and glance over her shoulder. A tall, sandy haired man approached. Blue jeans hugged long legs, and a brown bomber jacket stretched across broad shoulders. Arresting blue eyes held her gaze. Margot's pulse skipped a beat. Well, damn, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;Scotland&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt; was the place for good-looking men.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;She stopped and turned so he could catch up with her. “Sugar, I don’t think we’ve met, but I’m glad you didn’t let the possibility of rejection stop you. Not that there’s much chance you’ll get rejected.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;A corner of his mouth twitched. “Special Director McNeil, at your service.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;Margot startled. “What?” Before he could respond she murmured, “Hicks.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;She was a fool. She’d known Chief Hicks enough years to know he wouldn’t let her walk out and not keep tabs on her.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“You’re going to get me killed,” she said through tight lips.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;McNeil's brow lifted. “That could get me a discommendation.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“A comedian,” she muttered, then shot a glance past him at the castle battlements visible beyond the trees. Who had he talked to at the office? She turned and started down the path. He fell in alongside. “Want to tell me what you’re doing here?” she said.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“Professional courtesy.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“Bull—” The brow shot up again and she gave him a sweet smile. “You’re checking up on me, sugar.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“A moment ago you seemed glad a stranger had the bullocks to approach you.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;His cultured tone did nothing to belie the sensual undertone in his voice, and butterflies tickled the inside of her stomach at thought of those &lt;i&gt;bullocks&lt;/i&gt; and the matching cock. A man appeared on the path ahead, pushing a wheelbarrow filled with gardening tools, and the erotic picture evaporated. Margot cursed at recognizing the head gardener. Reports of her meeting with a man in the garden would reach Cat within the hour.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“Once Cat gets wind that the Northern Constabulary paid me a visit, she’ll know this isn’t the vacation it’s supposed to be,” Margot said.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;“That shouldn’t prove a problem,” he said. “I’m not with the Northern Constabulary.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;She started to ask, then knew. “Scotland Yard.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 0.5in; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;" face="Georgia"&gt;He smiled, and she remained quiet as the gardener passed with a sidelong glance in their direction.

&lt;p&gt;What a fantastic story that is passionately breath taking at every 
turn within the story. I was captivated from the very first page eating 
up every little detail about the Scottish Lord “Iain” and the English 
woman Victoria and knew immediately I was as in for a great read.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The writing is smooth and fast paced leaving the reader with great 
visions to ponder upon. I loved all the characters; they were all 
strongly built with feistiness and stubbornness. The characters sparked 
with humorous bantering (had me laughing out loud in some parts), feisty
 struggles (sexual tension and in denial of own feelings), and the hot 
passionate erotic scenes will leave your sexual mind’s appetite sated 
with pleasure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just from this one phrase I fell in love with Iain, it told me many 
things – LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT – it told me this Scottish man “Iain” has 
passion, this man has a deep desire, this man would be a great lover, 
this man would be a gentleman when called for, and this man would kill 
to protect his woman “Victoria.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;“His heart stilled with the sudden blaze of auburn hair 
against the highland sun, and he determined to learn what color eyes 
matched such fire.”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The drama unfolded kept me glued to the pages as every twisted plot 
unfolded. I have to say I got so wrapped up in the story as if I was a 
part of the story. My emotions throughout the whole story were happy and
 joyful as the climax of the story came within sight until it 
surprisingly turned to a shocking scenario and had me almost in tears 
leaving me in a WTF state, but all is good as it turned out it was just a
 dream.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is my first read from this author and I just have to say that I 
am truly a fan now, the writing is superb and I look forward to reading 
more of her works.&lt;/p&gt;

						&lt;p&gt;Lord Keeper starts off with a bang and just keeps going. Iain 
McPherson waited until she stepped off holy ground and took the woman he
 wanted. He was only following the age old highlander tradition of 
stealing his bride. However, the lady wasn't a highlander nor was she 
amused. She wouldn't even tell him her name. And so begins the 
adventure. Lady Victoria Hockley can't believe the nerve of the Laird of
 the McPherson clan. With a strength born of experience, she is more 
than a match for the man. Shadows from both their pasts, as well as 
betrayals from within, threaten their every move. Iain and Victoria are 
drawn together by an irresistible attraction and growing respect for 
each other, but far too many people plot to end their marriage before it
 starts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This story has all the makings of a fantastic read. You 
have the honorable hero, a strong heroine, a deeply passionate 
attraction and an intriguing plot with plenty of action. Who can resist 
those sexy highlanders? The writing is wonderful and the dialogue, 
snappy and interesting. This is much more than a love story and the 
drama will keep anyone intrigued. I think I fell in love with Iain as 
Victoria did. She was no push-over and earned everyone's respect. This 
one is very erotic and sensual, the romance in the story isn't short 
changed either. If the Scottish Highlands set your heart aflutter, Lord 
Keeper will entertain you with its wit, charm, heat and passion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Reviewed by: &lt;font&gt;Emma&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;</description><category>Lord Keeper Reviews</category><category>Reviews</category><comments>http://tarahscott.tarahscott.com/2012/01/01/lord-keeper-a-top-pick-at-night-owl-reviews.aspx#Comments</comments><guid isPermaLink="false">d1859f97-2d6e-4583-9312-cd701a7c8924</guid><pubDate>Sat, 21 Jan 2012 12:29:30 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>The Pendulum Free at All Romance E-Books</title><link>http://tarahscott.tarahscott.com/2012/01/07/the-pendulum-free-at-all-romance-e-books.aspx?ref=rss</link><dc:creator>Tarah Scott</dc:creator><description>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/39156-36159/thependulumtarahscott200x300.jpg?a=32" style="border: 0px solid;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;

Christmas really is almost upon us. The years fly by faster and faster. (Or maybe I'm just getting older and older.) Despite the cold weather, I love this time of year. Christmas lights, festive music ,and lot of parties! Well, for my daughter, anyway. What are your favorite activities this time of year? &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just a quick peek at my latest release, the Scottish Historical Lord Keeper. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.quickblogcast.com/39156-36159/LordKeeperByTarahScott200x3001.jpg?a=22" style="border: 0px solid;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" face="Georgia, serif"&gt;&lt;font color="black"&gt;No man bargains for war when he chooses a bride, but when he steals her from holy ground, he can expect nothing less.&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" face="Georgia, serif"&gt;Iain
 MacPherson swore he was nothing like his father, but his kidnapping of 
Victoria Hockley, the Countess of Lansbury is the first step toward the 
same obsessive jealousy that fueled his father’s life-long feud against 
the chief Iain’s mother loved.&lt;font color="black"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Hallowed ground can’t save her from the devil that followed her from &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color="black"&gt;England&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color="black"&gt;. Yet the Scottish lord who swears to protect her is far more dangerous. &lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;" face="Georgia, serif"&gt;&lt;font color="black"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#B7050F"&gt;Now Available&lt;br&gt;
