Book description
A proper young lady should never attend a Masque...Aphrodite is no
lady. Betrothal to the callous Lord Blackhall painted a future devoid of
love. Upon his death, Lady Caroline Wilmont is promised to the younger
brother. Caroline refuses to allow her first taste of desire to be at
the hands of a man who would rather have any woman but her. This, her
last night of freedom, is to be a memory of lust that she can take with
her throughout her loveless marriage. As Aphrodite, Caroline attends a
masque determined to find a man to initiate her into the intimacies of
erotic love. Taran Robertson, Viscount of Blackhall, makes no secret
that he despises his obligation to marry the Sassenach heiress chosen
for him by his father. As a last foray before his wedding, he attends a
masque. However, the spirited vixen he meets and seduces has
secrets...secrets that just may reveal he's to have an improper wife.
Award winning author Tarah Scott cut her teeth on books such as The
Bobbsey Twins (yes, she is dating herself!) Nancy Drew, Aesop's Fables,
The Arabian Knights, and Grimms Fairy Tales. Authors such as Georgette
Heyer, Zane Grey, and Mark Twain filled her teenage years. Her favourite
book is a Tale of Two Cities, with Gone With the Wind as a close second.
Favourite modern authors are Stephen King, Anne Rice, Amanda Quick, and
Johanna Lindsey. Born in New Mexico, Tarah grew up in the Southwest.
Fifteen years ago, she relocated to Westchester County, New York, where
she and her daughter reside in a lakeside community. When not working,
writing, or reading-who are we kidding? She's always working, writing,
or reading. Oh! There is her daughter. They do manage to spend a lot of
time together.
