I am going to chat about my latest Ellora's Cave release which is Stockholm Surrender, a seriously steamy tale of kidnap and lust, forbidden love and a battle against the odds.
Since I am going through a very visual stage (check out my Pinterest boards which prove my obsession) I thought I would share a few pictures with you that inspired my novel. But first here is the blurb...
By popular reader request, the full-length story of what happens after Stockholm Seduction.
My soul was in turmoil. Ty Winters had not only kidnapped me in Oz, my heartstoppingly gorgeous surfer had also stoked my darkest desires, bringing all my fantasies to the surface. So Oxford wasn’t going well. Until, that is, he creeped from the shadows—desperate, sexy, dangerous and wanting a piece of me, literally!
He teased me with a taste of his carnal skills, leaving me burning with frustration then forced to stand by as he fought for his beliefs using my lust-addled body as his most powerful weapon.
Oh, my kidnapper knew just how to get what he wanted, giving me just what I needed, while hiding our relationship from the British foreign minister and police. Because sometimes two people are meant to be, even in the most unconventional circumstances and twisted situations. We could fight the world, but we couldn’t fight our passion.

Tell me which is your favourite image and I will pick someone at random and send them a copy of Stockholm Surrender on 2nd of July. Don't forget to leave your email addy in the body of the comment!
In the beginning...
White lace.
Bangkok - a surprise in the restaurant!
Ropes and silk ties - something Ty is particularly fond of.
Cuffs - not of the fluffy pink variety.
Edinburgh, a safe haven.
Kind of how I imagine Ty to look - cocky, gorgeous, adrenaline-junkie.
How lucky can a girl get when two best mates are happy to share?
A good James likeness - before his ordeal...
...and after.
When dreams and reality blur!
Who can blame Penny for not being able to concentrate on her studies at Oxford?
Dragon tattoo - Ty
Sharing new experiences.
Not the best instrument for cutting hair.
Penny Tipping - British Foreign Minister's daughter.
Ty's biggest fear.
Some dresses are made for taking off!
I hope you enjoyed these pictures, it was fun finding them as was writing this raunchy novel.
