Romance Historical

They're rebels, scoundrels, and blackguards-dark, dashing men on the wrong side of the law. But for the women who love them, a hint of danger only makes the heart beat faster, in the stunning debut historical romance The Highwayman by Kerrigan Byrne.

STEALING BEAUTY

Dorian Blackwell, the Blackheart of Ben More, is a ruthless villain. Scarred and hard-hearted, Dorian is one of Victorian London's wealthiest, most influential men who will stop at nothing to wreak vengeance on those who've wronged him...and will fight to the death to seize what he wants. The lovely, still innocent widow Farah Leigh Mackenzie is no exception-and soon Dorian whisks the beautiful lass away to his sanctuary in the wild Highlands...

COURTING DESIRE

But Farah is no one's puppet. She possesses a powerful secret-one that threatens her very life. When being held captive by Dorian proves to be the only way to keep Farah safe from those who would see her dead, Dorian makes Farah a scandalous proposition: marry him for protection in exchange for using her secret to help him exact revenge on his enemies. But what the Blackheart of Ben More never could have imagined is that Farah has terms of her own, igniting a tempestuous desire that consumes them both. Could it be that the woman he captured is the only one who can touch the black heart he'd long thought dead?

After reading many a synopsis from this genre, I have to
say that I find your book to be most intriguing, and the
very first one that I actually want to pick up and READ!!
I don't know if it's the actual passion of yours that I'm
picking up on, but there's a definite draw, and I'm
anxiously waiting to read your book!! It's on my TBR list,
and I'll be hunkering down with it this Fall. I enjoyed
your posting, your bio, and the synopsis. Thank you for
coming here today to let us know about your latest book,
and best of luck in the future with your writing!! I have
a feeling you just gained a new fan!!

A belly-dancing law enforcer! Oh my! Lithe, with excellent

criminal.

Oh my goodness, Kerrigan I absolutely love how you described the protagonist in your book. He sounds hot and handsome, the woman sounds beautiful and lovely, and the book sounds amazing. Historical Romance is my favorite. Best of luck to all who have entered

I like the tone the "dating" profile sets.:)

I have always had a predilection for highwaymen. A handsome
rogue branishing a fine-edged rapier always sets my heart
aflutter. Dorian...I think you might just be my type.
