A Passionate Plume award for RAMPANT!

I'm so thrilled to be able to share this news!

I got up this morning to discover that my first Harlequin Books novel, RAMPANT, has won the 2010 Passionate Plume award, paranormal/time travel category. SO exciting! There were so many great books in the line up and it's a tremendous honour for RAMPANT to receive the award.

A big thank you to everyone involved in running the contest and the Passionate Ink chapter, and to all the judges. You can read the full line up here.

You know what this means.. yes! Parteeeeeee time! :D


The moment she arrives at her rented vacation cottage nestled in Scotland, Zoe Daniels feels it--an arousal so powerful she's compelled to surrender to the unusually forceful carnal desires...with nearly anyone who crosses her path. Crawford Logan, the boat builder with the wayward grin. The devilish restaurateur Cain Davot, who seems to know more about Zoe than he lets on. And even her sexy neighbor Grayson Murdoch, whose eyes delve deep into her soul as he explores every inch of her body.

Yet there's something unsettling about the way the locals watch her, something eerie about these overwhelming encounters. Zoe knows she's not quite in control of herself and begins to wonder if there's any truth to the legend of Annabel McGraw, a powerful, promiscuous eighteenth-century witch who once owned the cottage, and whose spirit is rumored to affect anyone who stays there. Zoe doesn't believe in anything that even hints at the occult, but now strange visions are turning frightening...and only one man's touch can bring her back to earth.
