| Monica's Website Main Blog Join Monica's Announcements Only Group A multi-published author of erotic romance, Monica Burns penned her first short romance story at the age of nine when she selected the pseudonym she uses today.

A workaholic wife and mother, Monica is a 2005 Golden Heart Finalist, 2006 EPPIE finalist, 2005 CAPA nominee and a recipient of JERR’s Silver Star award. Mirage is a finalist in the historical category of the 3rd Annual Passionate Plume contest sponsored by RWA's Passionate Ink special interest chapter "With sexual tension as scorching as the desert the novel is set in, MIRAGE is the kind of historical romantic adventure I cut my teeth on and have been missing for years. Ms. Burns has written a cinematic, compelling and highly recommended treat!" — Sylvia Day, Nationally Bestselling Author Mirage Add to My Profile | More Videos Dangerous ..

Books:Dangerous Behind the mask lies love-a dangerous and deadly emotion. Constance Athelson, Viscountess Westbury has a gift she can’t reveal. She sees things others can’t, including the dead. The only thing she can’t see is into the heart of Lucien Blakemore, Earl of Lyndham. After one blissful night in his arms, she knows if she’s ever to win his heart, she must free him from his tortured past. Lucien Blakemore met the Egyptian goddess Isis at a masked ball, but she vanished into the night before he could learn her real name. It’s just as well, since the Blakemore Curse makes love a dangerous and deadly emotion for him. But the erotic night he spent with his mysterious lover makes him want to throw caution aside-if only for one more night with his masked goddess.This story features one of Sebastian Rockwood's younger sisters. Sebastian's story is told in my New Concepts Publishing release, Obsession. The stories do not need to be read in any order. Mirage A man without a country... Half Bedouin, half English, Viscount Blakeney is a man without a country. In his heart, he's always been Sheikh Altair Mazir, but a deathbed oath forces him to divide his time between England and his beautiful Sahara. Prejudice a constant companion, he knows the folly of love and he can never trust a woman to love him for who he is—a half-breed. An independent woman seeking a Pharaoh's treasure... But when unorthodox, independent Alexandra Talbot storms the Ancient Antiquities Department in the male-dominated British Museum, he’s suddenly face-to-face with a prophecy that’s been handed down since the days of Ramses the II. Compelled to protect the feisty American as she searches for the Pharaoh’s treasure, he finds himself getting more than he bargained for. |
