The Perfect Scandal
2011
Wie angewurzelt bleibt Tristan, Marquess of Moreland, auf der stillen Straße stehen. Denn am erleuchteten Fenster des Nachbarhauses sitzt eine Fremde und bürstet ihr langes ebenholzfarbenes Haar. Ihre verführerischen Kurven nur mit einem zarten Nachtgewand bedeckt, schaut sie in seine Richtung - und ihre Blicke treffen sich! Wer ist diese atemberaubende Schöne, die ihn in ihren erotischen Bann schlägt? Wie kann er sich ihr entziehen? Denn das muss Tristan, um seinen Ruf als Autor eines Benimmbuches nicht aufs Spiel zu setzen. Doch zu spät: Diese Frau gefährdet alles. Sein Herz, seine Seele - sein Leben?

I spent my youth studying various languages, reading voraciously, and playing the pianoforte. I confess that here ends the extent of my gentle breeding. I was a naughty child who was forever torturing her parents with countless adventures that they did not deem respectable. Confined to my room on many occasions due to these misadventures, I soon discovered the quill and its amazing power. I scribed endless stories that almost invariably surrounded the topic of love, for I felt an inane need to be rescued from a family that did not understand my lust for life. In my mind, King Arthur became my true love and I waited for the day when he would come riding upon his steed and invite me to sit at his round table, not as his queen, but as his knight. To my distress, King Arthur was never to be found anywhere except for in the tip of my quill. And so I led an imaginary life for many, many years. When I finally came of age, my family was further horrified to discover that I had fallen in love with an American. An American King Arthur who became my knight, my husband, my all. I have been blessed beyond reason and am grateful for each day I have with him. What is equally amazing is that I now have the opportunity to share my passion for stories with the public. The reason why I write romance is because it allows me to touch upon the subject of love on a much deeper, more intimate level. Many of the stories I write, many of the stories I will continue to write, will always evolve around love. And yes, gentle readers, it will also evolve around sex as I have no intention of becoming my parents and restraining my characters from what it is they truly desire to do. I challenge you, my readers, to let loose of those corsets that have been strung too tightly due to convention and enjoy 1830 to its fullest."
