***
My husband and I had the privilege to visit London just days
after the wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton. The city was
filled with locals and tourists alike, celebrating the wedding and we had the
time of our life visiting all the historical landmarks that I’d grown up
reading about in my historical romances.
We visited Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Victoria
Station, the London Tower, the London Bridge and many more places that captured
my imagination but my all-time favorite was actually a place that we added at
the last minute because I wanted to experience riding a train through the
beautiful spring English country side. What a thrill!
It was Hampton Court Palace, the sometime home of Henry the
VIII that I fell in love with. A long time amateur historian of the Tudor era,
I was in heaven as we were allowed to roam the palace and grounds at will. It
would be hard to chose a favorite between the Gardens, Gallery, Great Hall, the
Chapel Royal, Maze … I could go on forever.
I highly recommend you experience it for yourself
and when I read historical romances of that era now, I’m transported there and
the stories come alive!

Love hits
the jackpot in these six seductive tales, each set in a different decade in the
hottest, wildest, most sinful of cities - Las Vegas. In Elizabeth
Spaur’s Miss Atomic Bomb, a beauty pageant brings a cowboy and
city girl together. A desperate singer finds new hope with a not-so-jaded
casino owner in B.A. McIntosh’s Home
at Last. In Lynn Crain’s, Hooked on a Feeling, two
Vietnam vets get a second chance at love while facing enemies at home. A
rodeo star falls hard for a showgirl in Diane Deeds’s Total
Eclipse of the Heart. In Kay Phoenix’s An
Unexpected Knight, a hero on a mighty steed captures the heroine’s
heart. A good girl learns that being bad can be very, very good in Tami Cowden’s It
Happened One Vegas Night. Mobsters and G-men, cowboys and
showgirls, singers and dancers, and even a knight in shining armor all find
that Sin City is not just a place to have fun – but also a great place to fall
in love.
Home At Last by B.A. McIntosh:
A desperate
singer finds new hope with a not-so-jaded casino owner. Ella would do anything
it takes to find her sister, including moving to Vegas with nothing but a few
bucks, a talent for singing and her dreams.

Excerpt:
“Are you all
right?” He asked softly as he bent
closer so she could hear him in the noisy casino. His warm breath caressed her
ear and neck where she’d pushed her hair back and sent a ripple of awareness
through her. She was so out of her element with a man as sophisticated as this
one. What was she thinking just blindly following his lead? She blamed her
compliance on his relentless presence in her life. It was just so much easier
to go along with Mister I can do whatever
I want.
They stopped at
the bank of elevators where she withdrew herself from his embrace. “Luke, maybe
this isn’t such a good idea.”
He nudged her
chin up with a firm hand and held on until she met his warm brown eyes. “You
need to adjust your thinking if you believe that I would ever do anything that
hurt you or make you uncomfortable,” he whispered, rubbing his thumb over her
lips. “And I don’t want you alone in your room when the waiter arrives with our
dinner.”
“You’re worried about the waiter?”
He dropped his
hand and shot her a stubborn look. “No, I’m worried about you.”
“Why?”
He guided her
through the open elevator’s doors. “We’ll discuss this when we get to your
suite.”
Men were so
confusing. She shook her head. “So it’s all right for you to enter my hotel
room but not the waiter?”
“Yes.” Amusement filled his eyes as he dragged his
hand through his hair. He pressed his
lips to her ear and murmured, “You are innocent and sweet, Ella. I don’t trust
other men not to try to take advantage of you.”
Ella rolled her
eyes at him. It was pointless to try to
talk some sense to him. She might not be as experienced and worldly as he was,
but something wasn’t adding up and she would find out exactly who he was and
what he wanted over dinner.
