Blog Tour: How to Seduce a Scoundrel by Vicky Dreiling (Guest Post & Giveaway)

Today we have the lovely Vicky Dreiling visiting on her blog tour with a guest post and giveaway!

What's in a name?

This is really a fun topic for me because there is a story behind the names of my characters. When I first set out to write my debut novel HOW TO MARRY A DUKE (January 2011), I asked my friend Kristi to assist me. I had one big requirement for the names of my soon-to-be hero and heroine: alliteration. In my mind, this made the starring characters seem more like a couple.

My friend Kristi said, “OK, no problem.”

When Lady Julianne Gatewick realizes the rake of her dreams thinks of her as practically his sister, she decides it's time to get even. The charming Marc Darcett, Earl of Hawkfield, is every lady's fantasy, but he's determined to evade virgins and their matrimonial traps - especially his best friend's sister. Hawk reluctantly agrees to be Julianne's guardian for the season, but he's having trouble resisting his gorgeous ward. Worse still, she's taunting him by flirting with every scoundrel in London - and he's sworn to protect her! Certain she's learned her tricks from the authoress of that scandalous publication "The Secrets of Seduction", Hawk sets out to uncover the writer's identity. But he never expects to find the formerly angelic Julianne behind the mask - and between his sheets.
