Tye Hajan is the daughter of a powerful man who is now dying. If he does so, Tye and her beautiful sister Wyn will be forced into virtual slavery, since on Metra colony women cannot own property. When she gets her first glimpse of the stranger Cradon, she likes what she sees. But can he be trusted?

Cradon is a warrior with a mission to save his colony, which is close to starvation. He becomes a protector for the workers who pick tanco so they are not killed by the alpana who are large cat-like creatures. Cradon harbors a secret that were it to get out, he could lose his life. When Cradon meets Tye for the first time and realizes the men think she is ugly, he can scarcely believe it, since she definitely lights his fire!

When Tye stands naked where her father’s overseer Fucian is sure to see her, she knows she is taking a risk. However, she is trying to stop Fucian from taking so many liberties such as entering her home whenever he wants. When he sees her, it will give her the upper hand because if she tells anyone, he will have to marry her. Unfortunately, Fucian has Cradon with him. She does not want to marry Fucian. Will Cradon help her by allowing her to choose him instead?

Wanton Warrior kept me glued to the pages from the very beginning! The different cultures were interesting and the world building very good. Tye and Cradon come together beautifully, and I was very happy to see that he was able to see her real beauty. The love scenes are beautiful and well thought out as well. A great cast of characters and a world I would not mind reading about again!

Yesterday was an emotional day…dealing with Mom’s estate, my brother and I had harsh words.

Already in a bad mood, I decided to go for broke, so I called Avalon. I didn’t expect to hear they planned to call, but weren’t far enough along in their schedule to make an offer.
They’ve tentatively slotted Thoroughly Mannerly Millicent in April of 2007. An editor said even though it’s not official, I can tell… Not only is it great because I’ll have a book I can use my own name on, I can actually put Andrew, Payton, Paige and Parker in the dedication and make it a legacy. Plus, I really liked hearing she loved it!

So to celebrate, I put battery operated Christmas light on my faery skirt! It’s cool in the dark, however, a little bizarre otherwise. You can’t see the wire, just the little lights peeking through. The good news…I think my spurs will distract from the lights.

This review blows me away! Who knew an erotic fantasy could generate words like SWEET and POIGNANT! All together I count seven superlative descriptive words in this fabulous review…how many do you count?

RT rocks!

He was a bull rider, about my height with lean solid muscles. My step-father was there for the cutting competition, so I had a lot of free time. I didn’t see my super-kissing cowboy ride his bulls…I was only interested in his lips.

However, when he showed up at a horseshow the following weekend, he scared me. With no bull riding at this show, he’d made it clear he’d come for me. While I kissed him a little that second time, I worried. And I guess he figured it out because I didn’t see him again.

Another wild cowboy had come in my life a year earlier when I was sixteen and learning to drive. I wasn’t ready to be serious. Like the other cowboy who came along later, this one followed me to the shows, but I didn’t mind. This one knew my parents and he seemed like the boy next door. Maybe he was, but I didn’t get a chance to find out. We had a tragic ending when he had a motorcycle accident during one of his visits to me at a horse show. It was a serious one.

After his accident, he changed. Now, I understand it: then I didn’t have a clue.

Cowboys were a way of life as I grew up. There was never a day without a horse, riding, and all that having show-quality horses entailed. Cowboys came to ride at our farm, we went to shows and rodeos almost every weekend in the summer and rode daily. Later we sold the farm and moved to house with ten acres to ride. Without the bull riding shoots and the big arena, not so many cowboys came to the house. But we went to a lot of horse shows and rodeos. And there was 4-H.

Now I realize what a great experience that was. And life with cowboys, I preface this with an apology: is a very limiting experience in many ways. I had my close friends at school, but all my friends outside of school were cowboys, wives of cowboys, children of cowboys, horses and more horses. It is literally “being in the life”.
