The Courage to Love



Welcome Samantha Kane as our guest EC author today. Below is a little bit about her book, some tidbits about Samantha and sippets of the great reviews THE COURAGE TO LOVE has garnered!

Book One in the Brothers in Arms series.

Kate Collier is still recovering from a vicious rape and trying to make a success of her dress shop when Lord Jason Randal and Mr. Anthony Richards return to London from the continent, intent on winning her. She’s known them for years, ever since they served with her late husband in the Peninsula against Napoleon. She’d been in love with them for almost that long. To discover they feel the same is a shock, but Kate isn’t ready to turn her life back over to a man, or men.

Jason and Tony prove hard to resist, however, especially when their close friendship blossoms into desire for each other as they make Kate’s body burn with passion. The combination of their insatiable desire for her, and their journey into a sexual relationship with one another, is irresistible to Kate.

A nightmare from her past tries to keep them apart, but the three long for a life together in spite of society’s censure, and they will not be denied.

About Samantha Kane
Samantha Kane lives in North Carolina with her husband of ten years and three children, two boys and one girl. She spent seven years as a high school history teacher in Kansas and North Carolina before becoming a full time writer and mom. She has a Master's degree in American History from the University of Kansas.

Sandra's hobbies include reading, knitting, chasing children, going to the beach as often as possible, antique stores and catalog shopping. (Although she insists she does not have a problem, she only shops recreationally.)

Her novels are not written from experience, but from an overactive imagination, (for which her husband is eternally grateful.) The main theme in her novels is the acceptance of love in its many forms: among friends, for family, and romantic love between men and women.

Reviews:

Although the love scenes rate a 20 on a scale between 1 and 10, the emotional bond between the three makes reading such scenes profoundly emotionally intense rather than voyeuristic. THE COURAGE TO LOVE is a regency set historical romance like no other, and one I highly recommend." Romance Reviews Today
"I love a good ménage á trois story. This one is better than good." Coffee Time Romance

"A top rating goes to this novel." Joyfully Reviewed
"The Courage to Love is an incredibly erotic journey of the heart and soul. . . Don’t miss this story. Samantha Kane is a welcome voice on the historical erotic scene!" The Romance Studio

"This is one book for those of us who love erotica. This one is quite steamy and ice cubes will not put out the fire." Ecataromance

"The Courage to Love by Samantha Kane is a toe curling step back in time." Erotic Escapades

"THE COURAGE TO LOVE has earned a permanent spot on my keeper shelf! Why? Because any book that can send tingles down my spine and curl my toes is
too hot not to reread whenever the mood strikes. The characters are
perfect." Romance Junkies, 5 Blue Ribbons
