I'm delighted to welcome the lovely Siobhan Muir on my blog today. Her latest release is an intriguing twist on an old trope - a dragon and a virgin, and of course a hero who jumps the virgin - erm, fights the dragon. So, without further fuss, please welcome SM - the other one ;)

Thanks so much for having me here today,
Sage. I love visiting your blog. :)
So with a hectic weekend behind me and a
crazy week ahead (I now have edits I have to finalize), Monday comes as a
surprise. The usual schedule is all cranked around because the kids are out of
school for the summer and I’m thinking – VACATION! Beach reads, hanging by the
pool, and spending warm evenings watching sunsets with the person I love.
Yeah, not so much. Las Vegas is in the
middle of the Mojave Desert and it’s HOT, and not in the good way we erotic
romance authors write about. ;) It makes me more of a hermit during the summer
months than any other time of the year. But that’s a good thing for you, right?
It means more books for you to read.
My recent release Not a Dragon’s Standard Virgin, is a great vacation getaway tale
because it takes you to a remote Scottish village where a dragon has been
wreaking havoc on the residents. Their solution to the dragon? Appease it with
virgins. Yeah, that totally works, right? :D
Isabelle Andersen’s solution to getting OUT
of the sacrifice is to find a man to take her virginity, which sounds easy, but
isn’t when the village is looking to get rid of her. Not your standard virgin
by any stretch of the imagination. She picks Jon Swift, a warrior who stops in
town on a windy spring night, and makes her blood run hot. It helps he’s pretty
handsome and moves with a predatory grace.
The only problem is Jon has sworn off
virgins and is just there to kill the “dragon” to protect the village. Isabelle’s
request throws him for a loop because he’d like nothing better than to take her
up on her offer, but bitter experience makes him more willing to use his steel
sword than his masculine one. ;)
Here’s the blurb:
Sacrificial
virgins are so sixteenth century, but unless Isabelle finds a man to take her
innocence, she’ll likely be next.
For Isabelle Andersen, being a
virgin in a dragon-plagued Scottish village is dangerous. Potentially the next
dragon sacrifice, Isabelle’s only solution is to lose her innocence, and fast.
All she needs is one handsome stranger she can coax into bed, but Lochmore Cott
doesn’t get much in the way of visitors.
Jonarrion Swiftwind has sworn
off virgins. The last time he took one to his bed, his family paid the price
for his lust at the hands of her demon-possessed father. He’s made it his
mission to destroy all demons. Nothing distracts him from killing this demon
until lovely Isabelle offers him tea. And her virginity.
Just
one night of passion makes Jon realize he doesn’t want to let the independent
beauty go. But will Isabelle accept him when she discovers the only real dragon
in her village… is him?
Set in historical Scotland, this story is a
fantasy paranormal romance, but there is a hot warrior wearing a kilt, a bold
Scotswoman willing to try anything to survive, and a deadly dragon. What’s
better than that for hot summer reading? Thanks so much for stopping by and
happy reading!
Siobhan
