"You could call this book 'Pleasuring the Reader.'" ~ Barbara Vey, Beyond her Book Publishers Weekly
"Bryan's touches of humor, naughty, bawdy dialogue and colorful descriptions capture the era, adding dimension to this charming tale of a landlocked pirate, the hellion who tames him and their wild adventure. The heat rises as their escapades sizzle, and readers' hearts will race to the delightful conclusion." ~ RTBookReviews
"Pleasuring the Pirate is a fabulous, fun romp full of adventure, mischief, mayhem, romance and yes PIRATES! I simply couldn't put this one down." ~ NightOwl Romance REVIEWER TOP PICK!
"A page-turning read! Ms. Bryan gives it all to the reader." ~ Once Upon a Romance

DISTRACTING THE DUCHESS ~ Before I started playing with pirates, I wrote about an artistic duchess. Her new nude model has nothing to hide, except that he's Her Majesty's spy!
Next February, VEXING THE VISCOUNT will come out and after that, I'm under contract for a holiday anthology for October 2009 with USA Bestseller Jennifer Ashley and new author Alissa Johnson. All our characters will be attending the same Christmas Ball. And YOU are invited too!
But before then, we have a chance to get to know each other better. I've been writing since 2001 and find the whole process fascinating. If you are a writer or avid reader, we've got things to talk about.
I plan to share the books I'm currently reading and hope you'll do the same. Grab a cup of coffee and let's talk a while!
Who I'd like to meet: Readers, writers, editors, booksellers(my personal heroes!), reviewers, anyone with something interesting to share about life and love.
I'm looking forward to meeting YOU!
If you're on Facebook, please friend me!
Here's a short slideshow of my DH and I on our recent cruise to Bermuda!

The Gateway
by Alec Derwent Hope
Now the heart sings with all its thousand voices
To hear this city of cells, my body, sing.
The tree through the stiff clay at long last forces
Its thin strong roots and taps the secret spring.
And the sweet waters without intermission
Climb to the tips of its green tenement;
The breasts have borne the grace of their possession,
The lips have felt the pressure of content.
Here I come home: in this expected country
They know my name and speak it with delight.
I am the dream and you my gates of entry,
The means by which I waken into light
