Her business, Madison Creations, is finally gaining traction, and if she slays a high profile wedding, she could be catapulted to heights she's only dreamt of. She doesn't do dating and it suits her just fine, because she ends it before things get complicated. And then she sees his face. Jason Cox. The best man. And based on their last run in, the biggest jerk alive. He's dangerous. Lethal for her 'no complications' approach to men, since he's the one that inspired the approach in the first place. But when she looks into his eyes, she knows that

One of my favorite genres in the realm of historical romance novels is that of the Highlander.  I just love me a braw Scotsman wearing a kilt and little else!  I had the privilege to visit Scotland about five years ago, and it solidified my already great love for that country.  There is something so beautiful and mystical meandering through the Highlands with its creeping mists, majestic castles, and fathomless lakes.  I could just feel the pulse of the land in my veins and could easily imagine the people who lived there many years ago.  One thing our tour guide said was that the Scots constantly warred among themselves, and a bitter feud is at the base of this wonderful tale of The Highlander's Viking Bride  by Cathy & DD MacRae. The MacGerrys and the Sinclairs have been at each other's throats in a feud that has lasted hundreds of years.  No one can really remember by they were fighting in the first place.  After unexpectedly finding himself laird of the clan, C

He jumps at Laird Sinclair’s offer of marriage to his only daughter, Katja, to seal the agreement between th

So this happens to be my first foray into doing a promo and a review for a blog tour and I have to say it is quite a great deal of fun!  I had always been hesitant to participate in these although I had been asked before, simply due to the fact I never knew if I could actually do my part.  What if something happened and I couldn't fulfill my obligation? Or worse, what if I didn't like the book and could not bring myself to finish it? Thankfully, neither of these things happened to me with How to Ruin Your Reputation in 10 Days by Harmony Williams. Since I already posted a promo for this book, I won't bother you with a repeat of the synopsis, but instead I'll just dive just into the story.  Francine Annesley is more interested in all things botany than men and would rather spend her time in her family's hothouse then in a crowded ballroom.  However, her father insists on her marrying, so in order to accommodate his wishes, she attends various events throu

Meet the Author: Harmony Williams has been living vicariously in Regency-era England since she discovered Jane Austen. Since time machines don’t yet exist, she’s had to make do with books—fictional and non-fictional. On the rare occasion she doesn’t have her nose stuck in a book, she likes to drink tea and spend time with her 90-lb lapdog. A feminist, she writes stories about strong women and the men who support them as equals.

If men were like plants, she would have a garden of admirers to choose from instead of the thorn in her side since childhood, Julian Beckwith. But she would make an even worse nun than she does a lady, which will be her fate if she can't dig up a husband before the Season ends. However, Julian is not an option. With only ten short days left in the Seaso
