NEW Author Spotlight! Kay Danella

I really don’t know what’s more appropriate to follow a mantitty poll but galtitty. Wow. And I would never have guessed from this cover that it’s a fantasy romance. I was thinking more futuristic disco with zero inhibition. (Alternate title suggestion: Honey, You Shrank My Hoodie) Let’s see, what do we have here? Via the author’s blog:

The eldest daughter of a clan of perfumers, Alithia must secure her family’s endangered livelihood by retrieving an ancient relic in the fabled north of the neighboring mountain realm. But the rules and tradition of Hurranni society forbid her from making the journey alone. Alithia must take a shield pair as husbands.

With many competitors vying for her hand, Alithia proposes a contest: those who can best pleasure her, wins. The victors are Taith and Phelan. Two strong and able men from an unknown clan, their own beliefs play havoc with the woman they both want. As two societies are joined in a tenuous union, their quest begins.

As emotions run high and ecstasy runs wild, Alithia, Taith, and Phelan are bound to together by the dangers of the journey, by a clash of cultures more intense than they ever imagined, and by a twist of fate that will change their lives forever.

Ancient relics are necessary for the perfume business to thrive? Now this I gotta read, because not only are there relics, but ecstasy is running wild. This is like saying that a herd of cheesecakes is stampeding its way towards me. I suspect the blurb refers to something else, but along similar, thrilling lines. Releases December 1, 2o09 from Berkley Heat.
