Perfume designed exclusively for Unlawful Contact!
I am so excited to announce that internationally known perfumer Dawn Spencer Hurwitz has created two new scents in honor of Unlawful Contact. Dawn designs scents for Hollywood stars, New York jet-setters and Parisian socialites. Using natural oils and essences, not chemicals, she makes her perfumes by hand, one drop at a time, just as perfumers did three hundred years ago.
I met Dawn this past summer and was so impressed by her work that I asked if she’d be interested in turning the characters in Unlawful Contact into scents. She read the manuscript, took lots of notes about Marc’s and Sophie’s personalities, and then began to turn those into scents.
I went in to sniff the final results last week, and I love them! I’ve been wearing “Sophie” ever since and dabbing “Marc” on all the men in my life. “Marc” captures the scents of Colorado’s mountains together with Marc Hunter’s deep masculine sexuality, while “Sophie” captures Sophie’s sexy, sleek sophistication with a touch of innocent “fairy sprite” sensuality. The two work well together, both featuring certain musk notes that make them a “couple.”
Working with an artist like Dawn was so much fun. She and I are talking about doing it again, perhaps going backward with the I-Team series. “Julian” anyone?
The scents are now done and can be ordered from her Web site at www.dshperfumes.com. Click on Essence Oils. The perfumes are part of the Essence Studio collection. She has a variety of sizes available, including samples for under $4.
Unlawful Contact a Borders Top Pick!
I was very excited to learn that Unlawful Contact is a Borders Top Pick for the month of April. The book, complete with a “Dear Reader” letter from me, as well as the book trailer, will be featured in the Borders monthly romance news letter. I’m very grateful to Borders for their enthusiastic support!

Untamed slated for a November 2008 release
For those of you who loved Surrender, I’m happy to say that Untamed is almost finished! The book, which is the second in the MacKinnon’s Rangers trilogy, tells the story of Morgan MacKinnon, who has taken command of the Rangers and who is wounded and taken captive by the French while saving the life of one of his men. While healing from his injuries, he meets Amalie, a young French-Métis woman whose father the Rangers killed at the Battle of Ticonderoga (featured in Surrender) the summer prior.

Kenleigh/Blakewell Family Trilogy to be re-released
For those of you who’ve been looking for Sweet Release, Carnal Gift, and Ride the Fire and haven’t found them, the good news is that they’re being reprinted with new, added material. Ride the Fire is also getting a new cover. The not-so-good news is that this won’t be happening until October.
Naked Edge is next in the I-Team series
One of my favorite characters in my continuing I-Team series is Katherine (Kat) James, the Navajo, or Diné, reporter who handles the environmental beat. Practical, down to earth and reserved, she brings a different perspective to the news room. One of the areas I’ve focused on during my 15 years in investigative journalism is American Indian issues, much of that revolving around the Navajo. I’m looking forward to channeling that into Kat’s story in Naked Edge. Look for an excerpt in the back of Unlawful Contact!
“A dazzling talent”
I’m floating on the ceiling! New York Times bestseller Lori Foster graciously agreed to read the manuscript for Unlawful Contact and had this to say: “Powerful, sexy and unforgettable, Unlawful Contact is the kind of story I love to read. Pamela Clare is a dazzling talent.”
I’ve never met Ms. Foster, and I didn’t even know she was reading the manuscript, so imagine how thrilled I was to get the e-mail from my agent with this quote inside. I e-mailed Ms. Foster to thank her, and she sent a very kind reply, saying she thought I have a “huge hit” on my hands. Well, she would know about huge hits, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Her new L.L Foster series just launched with Servant: The Awakening, which is sure to be a hit. Check out her L.L. Foster website at www.llfoster.com.
