SCOUNDREL'S KISS, Carrie Lofty's Spanish-set medieval romance, received its first review. Working Girl Reviews says: "Reading this extremely well plotted novel was much like watching a really great action adventure movie. Add to that elements of betrayal and deception, a few well placed love scenes, and political intrigue and you have a genuine nail-biting, can't-put-downable reading experience." SCOUNDREL'S KISS hits the shelves on January 5th and is available for pre-order.
