HE’S A BIKER WITH AN ATTITUDE
What woman wouldn’t be attracted to Niall O’Connor’s soft
Irish brogue and dark good looks? But Rosenwyn Tremain must
find her father, and she isn’t going to let a sexy, stubborn
Irishman and his motorcycle distract her. Rose’s intuition
tells her he’s hiding something, a secret even the cards
cannot divine. Her tarot deck always reads true, but how can
one man represent both Justice and Betrayal?
SHE’S A WOMAN ON A MISSION
Magic. Niall’s body tingles with it when he finds the woman
snooping in his room. Rosenwyn might believe she’s a
no-nonsense accountant, but her essence whispers to him of
ancient fairy magic that enslaves even as it seduces. Her
heritage could endanger those he’d die to protect, but her
powers and her passion, if properly awakened, might be the
only thing that can save both their families, vanquish a
fairy queen bent on revenge, and fulfill a prophecy that
will bind their hearts together with…THE MAGIC KNOT

Re: The Magic Knot
Hi Helen! It's a pleasure to see you blogging here today. Of course, the day is almost over with!
Wait, I just realized that I am actually early!! This should be a good day.
With regards to your question, I like both settings, but it depends on the paranormal creature. Mystical rural settings make me think of fairies, elves, sprites, and all those beautiful woodland-type creatures, whereas dark urban settings make me think of vampires and werewolves. One deals more with life, and the other with death. Unless you've got a really sinister fairy! Julie (Julie Robinson 12:27pm January 30, 2009)
Hi Helen Your book sounds great I'll be getting it. All the best Penney (Penney Wilfort 10:08am January 30, 2009)
Hi Julie, Thank you for taking time to leave me a comment about my blog.
You are right that rural settings lend themselves to fairies. That must be why I prefer that setting! Although I also like the idea of shape shifters in the wilder parts of the countryside. I can imagine shape shifters living on bleak moorland where no body would see them as they shifted and ran wild.

Hi Penney, Thank you for stopping by to leave a comment. I'm delighted you like the sound of The Magic Knot. I love the fairy world!

With all the magical notes this sounds like a fastinating read!! I'm looking forward to it! Thanks for sharing, Darby darbyscloset at yahoo dot com (Darby Lohrding 12:59pm January 30, 2009)
I like the rural settings too. There is so much history in the world that it is just fascinating when you can read a story that brings some of that to it. (Vicki Hancock 1:13pm January 30, 2009)
Hi Darby, Thanks for stopping by to comment. Glad you like the sound of The Magic Knot! Helen (Helen Scott Taylor 1:25pm January 30, 2009)
Hi Vicki, I agree with you; the history fascinates me as well. I love visiting historic houses. There are some lovely ones near my home in the English West Country. They fill me with inspiration. Helen (Helen Scott Taylor 1:27pm January 30, 2009)
Well, that's true, Helen. After all, Dracula was in a castle away from the village. And I do like the idea of shapeshifter cats and wolves running wild in the moorland. Hmmmm, next story perhaps? Julie (Julie Robinson 1:28pm January 30, 2009)
I like your idea of using various settings for different types of special people(?) I am a little tired of being politically correct, but what do you call a shapeshifter when it shifts shape? (Karin Tillotson 1:55pm January 30, 2009)
Hi Karin, I guess the terminology used to describe a shape shifter and the process of shifting depends on the story. Different authors call them different things. The last shape shifter book I read was by Nalini Singh. I'm sure she had a special term for when they shift shape, but I can't remember at the moment.
BTW, if you haven't read Nalini Singh's books, I recommend them. (Helen Scott Taylor 3:33pm January 30, 2009)
I prefer the rural setting. It sort of gives more magical leeway to the plot. Cities give a more gritty hard feeling to a story. Lets face it, misty moors, cobbled villages, shadowed forests and flowered meadows are wonderful settings for romance and magic - no matter what the year. (Patricia Barraclough 8:41pm January 30, 2009)
Hi Patricia,
You're right. The choice of rural or urban setting gives a whole different feel to a book. I definitely prefer the mystical rather than the gritty. Helen (Helen Scott Taylor 6:44am January 31, 2009)
