As her breath slowed, she tried to make sense of the fantasy. She was not a submissive type in her personal or professional life, but apparently her subconscious loved the idea of a beautiful but sensitive barbarian of a man—or three—named Magnus orchestrating her pleasure.
Why had she walked away from him? She didn’t want to be lost and alone anymore, stranded on that train platform. Life may have put her there, but she had to admit, she’d chosen to remain. She resolved to try to be with a man again—even if she had to imagine the Viking warrior to reach complete oblivion.
Acknowledgments
First, I acknowledge you, dear reader! Thank you for taking the journey of this story.
I’d also like to thank my village of writer friends without whom there would be no book. Thank you to Romance Writers of America and the Golden Heart Award®, without which there would be a much smaller village of writer friends. A huge thanks to all who beta read and provided most helpful advice: AY Chao, Christine Grissom, Patty Hoffman, Christina Hovland, Susannah Erwin, Emily Sullivan, Evi Kline, and Scarlett Peckham. Thank you to my Golden Heart sisters, the Mermaids and the Rebelles, for being so incredible in too many ways to list, and to my fabulous editor, Juliette Cross, for believing in me and finding all the things that made this book better. Thank you Kerry Jesberger for your superb cover design skills.
Thank you to my family, especially my husband, my hero inspiration and the person who keeps the house running when I hunker down with yet another story idea.
About the Author
Colette Dixon writes steamy stories with heart and humor about slightly tortured people who learn how love can heal. For more years than she cares to admit, she worked in a hospital while dreaming up love story plots. A farm girl who landed in Chicago, she loves to eat (food made by others), drink tea, and sun herself at every chance she can get to survive the Midwest winter.
