I’m absolutely delighted to announce Cara Elliott’s debut into the world of romance!

Now, some of you may know me as Andrea Pickens, author of a number of award-winning Regency-set historical romances.

So why Cara Elliott? Well, the answer is . . .

I’m so excited about the new direction of my writing that my editors and I decided it deserved a new pen name.

And I’ll tell you why—the upcoming books are more SEXY than ever!

My Andrea Pickens “Spy” trilogy was swashbuckling adventure. (Think Jane Austen meets James Bond!) The three oh-so-dangerous heroines were not afraid to put on breeches and boots, and then kick a little butt! They crossed swords with the men—and came out on top! (check out my alter ego website for more detailed info and excerpts.)

As Cara Elliott, I slide into a sexy, slinky little black dress. My debut trilogy is called ‘The Circle of Sin’ and features three beautiful, brainy heroines. Each of them is a brilliant scientist—and each of them has a dark secret in her past. Experience has taught Ciara, Alessandra, and Kate that men are dangerous devils. But when an old mistake threatens utter ruin and scandal, each of the ‘Sinners’ is forced to accept help from an unexpected hero . . .

So what happens when a serious scientific scholar must partner with a rakish scoundrel? The result is . . . a sinfully sexy chemistry that ignites some real heat! It’s said that “opposites attract.” And when the ‘Sinners’ and their men collide, watch the sparks fly.

Passion, wit and intrigue—I hope that you will agree that The Circle of Sin combines the perfect romantic ingredients for three sizzling, seductive stories.

Enjoy!
