About the Book
Like any dutiful Scottish daughter, Libby Stewart puts her
family first. She’s spent months helping her brother, a single father, care for
his new daughter. The strain of her family commitments led to the painful
demise of a two-year relationship. As Libby nurses her broken heart and
relishes time with her niece, her father offers her a job managing his hotel.
She’s ready to focus on her career and get her life back on track.
Alexander Mathews, a handsome American businessman who is
staying at the hotel, has other plans for Libby. She’s taken aback when she
meets Alex. He strikes her as arrogant and domineering, but regardless, the
sexual tension between them is palpable. Libby fancies herself a good girl, but
Alex quickly seduces her. Libby finds she is soon addicted to the passion she
feels in Alex’s skillful hands.
Libby has never been so confused. Who is Alex Mathews,
really? An international playboy, or truly the man of her dreams? When a
confrontation with her ex-boyfriend turns violent and she questions Alex’s
loyalty to her, Libby must decide if she wants to let this charismatic stranger
from across the pond truly capture her heart.

Excerpt
I open a drawer of the dresser and throw the underwear in,
then stand staring in the mirror. I close my eyes and take in a long, deep
breath. I don’t need to open my eyes to know that he’s followed me into the
room. I sense him. He’s getting closer to me. I can smell him. It’s hard to
describe—a sweet, rich, masculine scent. I’ve not even heard his footsteps
coming across the floor. So silent, like a predator creeping up on its prey.
I can feel how close he is as he leans in. I feel his breath
against the back of my ear. Then it travels ever so slowly to the nape of my
neck. I know what he’s doing. This is sheer torture of a pleasurable kind. He’s
tormenting me on purpose. Don’t think I can take much more of this. But I don’t
think I can move either. My brain has shut down. I should tell him to go; that
would be the right thing to do. But the parts of my body that have lain dormant
for the past few months won’t let me speak.
He slowly slips one hand round my waist as he trails small
kisses along my neck. My head automatically tilts to one side to give him more
access. His other hand starts at my neck, and with gentle strokes, he starts
working his fingers down my back, then up again. I can’t even bring myself to
open my eyes.
I must be dreaming. I’ve only known this gorgeous man who is
standing behind me for…how long? Not even a day. This can only be a dream.
“Libby, please. Open. Your. Eyes. And. Turn. Round,” he says
in between the kisses that he’s placing on my neck.
I don’t want to do as I am told because at this moment I am
quite content where I am. And I am also a bit afraid that he won’t finish what
he has started.

About the Author
I live just outside Glasgow, Scotland with my husband of
seventeen years and our, sometimes delightful, five children. My busy days
include helping my husband manage the family business, while the kids take up
the majority of the time, schools runs, parties and all the various sports
clubs they attend. I find escape from the chaos of everyday life in good books,
particularly stories of passionate romantic relationships. Let’s face it we all dream of the happily
ever after’s.
For as far back as I can remember I have devoted my time to
my family and for that I wouldn’t change a thing, but whilst thinking what I
wanted to do for me, I had this niggling feeling to write, but pushed it to the
back of my mind, for a good few months. Several months later and it was still
there along with the names Elizabeth and Alexander, so thought I have nothing
to lose so why not give it a go. Never in a million years when I started
writing He’s Captured My Heart, a tale of contemporary erotic romance set in
Scotland, did I think I would actually finish it, never mind do anything with
it.
