Another Friday, another personal ad! Guess the character name, title, and author correctly, and find yourself the proud owner of a lovingly-crafted, 100% dairy-free and heart-healthy Smart Bitches title.
SWF, 35 y.o., all alone and hopelessly on the shelf looking for a sexy, hypothermic stranger to pass out on my door. Good-looking illegitimate gunslinger/private investigator with overdeveloped sense of chivalry preferred. I have small farm, cozy house, some livestock; you have requisite equipment to take care of my virginity because damn, I’m sick of this hymen and nobody in the Dakota Territories wants it. Commitment would be nice, but one-night stand also acceptable.
p.s. Am willing to assist in any sort of investigation you’re involved in. I won’t get in the way, I swear.
Addendum: OK, since nobody’s gotten it yet thus far, I offer these hints:
- It’s a book written by a fairly popular author who’s written only historicals with American settings; the worst grade she’s ever gotten at AAR was a C.
- This particular book was published by HarperCollins in 1997.
Ringing any more bells?

White Out by Linda Howard? Sounds vaguely like it, but it’s been years, and I remember thinking there ain’t no way he could “perform” after suffering hyperthermia. Jus’ my opinion.
Nope, but thanks for trying. Hint: This entry is based on a full-length book, and it’s a historical.
Damn, you have stumped me here, Candy. I have no clue— but hypothermia? Woo, sexy!
It’s the only one I can think about with a hypothermic hero :-P
Otherwise, I’m pretty screwed, since I don’t read much in the historical frontier genre. I just find it too… condescending.
Is it One Lonely Night by Susan Kay Law? Margaret and Kiernan (sp?)
YES!!! Yaaayyyyyy!
Did you read the book, or did the hints tip you off enough to perform a search? Not that it matters either way, heh. I’m just nosy.
Anyway, I really dig that book. It’s one of two Susan Kay Law books I bothered to keep.
I did read part of this one (while sitting in a B&N) a long time ago but I didn’t finish it. I remembered it as Susan Kay Law, so I put her name and “dakota territories” in Google :D
Huh. I never would have gotten that.
Damn I knew I was missing out on all the good stuff while being sick. I have this, I knew this! I never know these.
le sigh
A website that reviews romance novels from a couple of smart bitches who will always give it to you straight. No bullshit. No gushing--unless the author really deserves it. To find out more, read all about us or check out our minty-fresh and funkadelic FAQ section.
I’m coming late to this party on account of my intermittent net access over the last week, but I wanted to say that, based on the trailer and article, I’m a little nervous about the documentary. Hopeful, but nervous.
…Awwww MAN, if only I still lived in Vancouver, and not back in Australia!! Nuts.
Well I’m a screaming extrovert, so if you see me, stop me and I’ll likely drag you to the bar, LOL! On any day but Wed. Wed I’m crazy busy with the Historical Writers conference.
I’ll be hunting…

That is a lovely legacy to leave behind.
