Gotta Love Boston!
Sierra Cartwright
I put a lot of thought into choosing the settings for my
books. It needs to reflect a little bit about the characters.
Much to his dismay, his mother is always pestering him to get
married. And it’s not just about selecting a bride. It’s about choosing a woman
from the right family (in her opinion). That’s really important to her, so she
wants him to marry a woman of Mayflower descent.
Kennedy’s father and his family have been in business for
over a hundred years.
So Boston seemed like a logical choice. I spent a magical
week in Boston, and it was a trip I will never forget. I loved the amazing
food, walking the historic Freedom Trail, going to the Boston Commons and
watching the swan boats, visiting my first-ever world-class aquarium, having a
beer at the Cheers bar, and of course, the shopping. I took my first-ever
subway ride in Boston, and it was to a Red Sox game. I’ll never forget the
experience of being on the train with dozens of other people and the excitement
of the fans.
The buildings in Boston are inspiring, as well, from modern
and sleek, to classic and regal. It was fun to use both of those in the book.
Kennedy’s family has an older house, while he lives in an ultra-contemporary
urban home, complete with a patio on the fourteenth floor.
While I generally write books set in the West, it was fun to
feature the Eastern Coast in Claim.
And it makes me want to have a follow-up. Which will means I’ll need to do more
research there…

It had to be her. He
won’t be satisfied until he claims her.
Kennedy Aldrich has perfected the art of dodging any
romantic entanglement that will lead to marriage. That is until he sees
Mackenzie Farrell at a BDSM gathering.
When they meet, he’s entranced by her intelligence and
submission, not to mention her stunning good looks. For the first time, he has
met a woman who captivates his interest on every level, someone he wants to
share his life with.
Mackenzie is overwhelmed by Kennedy’s attentions. A failed
marriage taught her to distrust men, and she’s vowed never to walk down the
aisle again.
It takes all her resolve to resist the devilishly handsome
Dominant. After all, the whole world knows of his legendary reputation with
women. Every feminine instinct warns that this man will demand more than she
can offer.
But she hasn’t counted on Kennedy’s determination to claim
her and prove that love is worth any risk.
Reader Advisory: This
book contains scenes of anal play.
About Sierra Cartwright:
INTERNATIONAL BEST
SELLING AUTHOR
Sierra Cartwright was born in Manchester, England and raised
in Colorado. Moving to the United States was nothing like her young imagination
had concocted. She expected to see cowboys everywhere, and a covered wagon or
two would have been really nice!
Now she writes novels as untamed as the Rockies, while
spending a fair amount of time in Texas…where, it turns out, the Texas Rangers
law officers don't ride horses to roundup the bad guys, or have six-shooters
strapped to their sexy thighs as she expected. And she's yet to see a poster
that says Wanted: Dead or Alive. (Can you tell she has a vivid imagination?)
Sierra wrote her first book at age nine, a fanfic episode of
Star Trek when she was fifteen, and she completed her first romance novel at
nineteen. She actually kissed William Shatner (Captain Kirk) on the cheek once,
and she says that's her biggest claim to fame. Her adventure through the
turmoil of trust has taught her that love is the greatest gift. Like her image
of the Old West, her writing is untamed, and nothing is off-limits.
She invites you to take a walk on the wild side…but only if
you dare.
You can find Sierra on Facebook, follow her on twitter and
check out her page on Tumblr.
