A mother of three, her two little gentleman’s in the making, a future Lady (she hopes) and a part-time job keep her busy in the real world, but whenever she gets a moment’s peace she loves to write romance novels in an array of genres, including regency, medieval and paranormal.

Description

<p>A mythical jewel of a story… A true story told on a beach in Yucatan, A Shadow tells Stephanie's story but it was also the story of the golden time. Its nostalgia sings like cicadas in the heat.</p><p>An American ‘Under Milkwood’, this distilled novel of the Sixties evokes the sounds, music and optimism on the free-wheelin streets and parks of Coconut Grove. You can hear Bob Dylan still strumming acoustic; smoke a joint with Fred Neil; and Everybody’s Talkin is carried on the wind.</p><p>Stephanie, a young hairdresser living in lodgings finds herself pregnant. Refused help from her hard Catholic mother in New York, unable to abort her baby, she accepts the kindness of Miriam, her Jewish landlady, whose own barren life spills into compassionate assistance for the daughter she never had.</p><p>The poignancy of its ending, its generosity and acceptance, echoes the bitter disappointment of those of us who hoped for so much more, but who remember its joy, and its promise, as though untarnished by time.</p>

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:13px;"><strong>I'm a sucker for a great Regency romp!</strong><br /> Ms Gill packs a lot of romance into her Naughty Nibble. Miranda and Merrick (ooh I love that name) are delightfully complex and daring characters. This one belongs on my keeper shelf! <strong>JaneP. Amazon.com 5 Star<br /><br /><span style="vertical-align:middle;">Simply Scintillating</span></strong><br /> Miranda and Merrick are destined to find happiness and pleasure (and so will the reader) in this fast paced, devilish read! Written with respect for the Regency era, Tamara Gill brings a fresh approach to this intriguing and erotic romance with elegant phrases and descriptions that bring the reader into the story, feeling the emotion and uncertainity of the main characters. Will Merrick give up his scandalous ways? Will Miranda tempt him to be sinful with her? This 'naughty nibble' novella comes highly recommended. <strong>CarolC. Amazon.com 5 Stars<br /><br /> Lord Scandal will give you shivers of delight!</strong><br /> With a name like 'Lord Scandal' how could anyone not want to spend one night in his bed? Ms Gill is onto a winner with her debut Regency nibble filled with well rounded characters and a fantastic premise! I can't wait to see what else she brings us from the naughtiest bedrooms of the ton. <strong>Bron.S. Amazon.com 5 Stars</strong><br /><br /><strong>What a delicious and erotic &quot;nibble&quot; is Tamara Gill's To Sin with Scandal.</strong><br /> She has captured the intrigues and strictures of this era beautifully. In her short novella she has managed to pack a story of thwarted love,impulsive decisions,risky assignations and enough heat to leave the reader gasping for breath, let alone her wonderful characters, Merrick and Miranda. I will certainly be watching for more from this author. <strong>Joanne Duncan.
