Release day!

WHAT A LASS WANTS officially hits store shelves today. Woot! A handsome thief and a determined lady-in-waiting discover what we all know to be true–that there’s nothing quite as stirring as a wild Highland passion:

She pressed her lips to the corner of his mouth, soft and sweet. “Perhaps I trust too easily. I’ve certainly been disappointed by the actions of others in the past. But you’ve had numerous opportunities to take advantage and have taken none.”

“I kissed you in the cellars,” he pointed out.

“I recall that,” she said, laughing lightly in his ear. Stirring the hairs at his temple and sending a wave of molten need rushing to his loins. “Hardly what I would label as taking advantage, however. It was quite delightful, but far too short.”

It had been short. By necessity. He’d been dangerously close to losing control—but nowhere near as close as he was this moment. The lass had no idea how desperate his desire was, but if he turned to face her, she’d know in an instant.

Her hot, wet lips found his earlobe, suckling. “Would you kiss me again?”

Dear god. Only a saint would be able to resist such a plea. And he was no saint.

What a Lass Wants

In two weeks time, What a Lass Wants, the 4th book in the Claimed by a Highlander series will hit store shelves. The hero of this book, Bran MacLean, was introduced in To Kiss a Kilted Warrior. Thief, rogue, and rascal–I knew as soon as I wrote his first line of dialog that his was a story that needed telling.

RT Book Reviews gave this book 4 stars and had this to say:

“Keats spins an adventurous tale of another feisty heroine claiming her highlander. Pitting a strong-willed lady-in-waiting with a clever thief and setting the romance during an era of treachery adds color and flavor.”
