It’s there in bubble baths, body lotion and silk pyjamas. My garden has it, hidden in tiny flowers and ripe fruit. Freshly ground coffee definitely contains a powerful spell. And as for chocolate... But I think people contain the most powerful magic of all, in their touch, through secret smiles or in a shared glance between two strangers. It’s in our stories too. That’s why I love myths and legends, fairy tales and fantasies and why I create stories that bring those elements into everyday life. Along with lots of sensual pleasure, of course... When I’m not writing I create small indulgences to share with others, for the kitchen, for the body and from my garden. I share my recipes on my site - I hope you enjoy them too.

Don’t even think about seducing one of ‘his’ nymphs. And for Zeus’ sake, don’t actually do it. Darien’s satyr-brothers warned him, but Darien isn’t one for rules. Especially when they forbid him from doing what he does best.view less
