Burning for Love by Evangeline Anderson

 

Author's Note #1

Readers sometimes like to know how I came up with an idea for a story so here goes. I freely admit that the idea of Burning for Love came from a re-watch of Bridgerton on Netflix. I loved the Regency setting and it occurred to me that I had never written anything resembling that time period. (Please note that I said ‘resembling’ because this is obviously not a real Regency novel and I have taken a few liberties with the fashions.) Also, I was very drawn to the idea of the heroine being kept completely innocent so that she has absolutely no clue about sex or any of the facts of life. I wanted to write about duels of honor and intrigues in the ballroom. And best of all, I loved the idea of using a scandal paper published by some unknown author as a way to convey juicy tidbits of information to the reader.

But of course, I had to put a sci-fi twist on it—hence my hero who is a Dark Kindred, my version of a cyborg. And my heroine who might literally burn to ashes if she doesn’t get what she needs from him.

It was so much fun to mix all this up together and serve it to you on a silver platter, Dear Reader. I sincerely hope that you enjoy reading Burning for Love as much as I have enjoyed writing it.

Hugs and Happy Reading!
