Her secrets
are coming undone...
Plagued by
scandalous rumors, Rheda Kerrich will stop at nothing to restore her reputation
and make an honest living for herself-and she's determined to do it without a
husband. But times are hard, and smuggling is a risky though profitable trade.
So when a dashing agent for the English government catches her in the act, she
desperately resists his charms and conceals her illicit profession. Until she
realizes he may be the key to her ultimate freedom-and unbridled passion.
Rufus
Knight, Viscount Strathmore, has never had trouble beguiling the ladies of
Kent. When his search for "Dark Shadow," a cunningly elusive
smuggler, leads him to alluring and headstrong Rhe, her objections to his
amorous advances merely incite a tantalizing game of cat and mouse. Soon,
they'll find the very secrets driving them apart could ensnare them in a love
they can't escape…

ABOUT BRONWEN
ANGI: Can you tell us about a real-life
hero you’ve met?
BRONWEN:
Gosh, a tough question
to start! I work part-time running a surgical association in New Zealand and
when the second big earthquake hit NZ in February 2011, I saw heroes working to
save so many people in terribly dangerous situations. 185 people died but many,
many more were injured, losing arms, hands, legs etc. Some of the surgeons had
to do on-site amputations, in destroyed buildings, that could collapse further
while aftershocks were going on. These surgeons and nurses are true heroes,
putting their lives at risk to help others.
ANGI: You’re favorite Regency hero?
BRONWEN:
Beside, Rufus
Knight, Viscount Strathmore, from Invitation to Scandal, tee hee? Gosh, I have
so many! Okay, it’s easy really, Ethan
Ryder from One Wicked Sin by Nicola Cornick (July 2011). For one he was an amazing soldier – the twist
being fro the French! Nicola is visiting my blog on 21 May.
ANGI: What’s the most interesting piece of
history you’ve discovered while writing?
BRONWEN:
Probably when I was
researching the UK slavery era and discovered how big the trade had actually been
considering you hear hardly anything about it. Bristol, England, was one of the
largest slave trading ports in the world.
ANGI: Is there a “Blooper” in your story
(it may have been changed before printing)?
BRONWEN:
I had loads! Only
joking. That’s what a good editor is for. Let me see…. I had a barrel of brandy
at the bottom of a cliff and thought my heroine, Rheda would be able to push it
up! Duh – so it became a flat beach. [CLUE
SEVEN: QUESTION]
ANGI: How is it working with hot guys and
sexy women all day?
BRONWEN:
I don’t think you
mean the surgeons! I LOVE writing. I love the characters that swim in my head,
and make me want to spend every hour of the day at my computer. Sometimes these
characters find me, like Rufus did – I know, strange name for a hero, but read
the book and I bet you’ll agree his name is perfect. At other times I look at
movie or TV stars for inspiration and think ooh, I’d love to write a beefy,
Damon Salvatore type character.
ANGI’S GOTTA ASK: HEY BRONWEN !! Since I’m on a Regency Q&A today, I was
wondering… IF you were time-traveling and landed in Regency England, what is
the number 1 thing you’d miss from the 21st century?
BRONWEN’S
GOTTA ANSWER: A proper toilet with toilet paper– gosh how practical am
I! Second to that, toothpaste!
