What it is about a man in a tri-cornered or cocked hat that stirs such passion for me? What makes that so freakin' hot? I don’t think I could really put my finger on it. But when I’m in Colonial Williamsburg and a young man with dark hair and broad shoulders…or even an older man with steely gray hair and a square jaw…goes galloping down Duke of Gloucester Street on his horse, cape flying, black leather boots secure in the stirrups, eyes blazing, I feel absolutely faint in the knees. Is it the sense of power the man projects? The self-confidence? The aura of duty and determination and strength? The idea that a man who exudes such command would command me in all the best ways? Maybe it’s none of those or all of those. I just know that a tri-corn hat is a first step to getting me hot and bothered and willing to meet the man in stable loft or behind the oak tree in the lily garden. Every Revolutionary hero needs a willing woman to help ease his mind and his soul and his body.

My novel Man of the Shadows (debut Jan. 16) throws a frustrated contemporary woman into a terrifying time fold with a handsome, dedicated, yet troubled Revolutionary War officer. Together, in the wilderness, they must find a way to survive. Is this my fantasy? Well, of course it is! And I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed imagining and writing it. 

And I’d love to hear what you think. Thanks! And thanks, also, to those who have helped make my first Ravenous Romance novel, Haunted Seduction, a best seller. If you haven't read that one yet, check it out!

Love,
Morgan
