How did Kayden Claremont create her hero for the series "Real Men Wear Kilts"? How did TARTAN TEMPTATION come about? In the author's own words:
I
love a man in a Kilt, I mean—who doesn’t.
When
The Wild Rose Press asked for stories for their Real Men Wear Kilts series I was
in heaven. I went through the usual list of placed you’d find a kilt-wearing
hunk, but decided to have Brodie Murdock wear his kilt every day. After all, it
would be such a pity to save all the scrumptiousness just for special
occasions.
Since
I write paranormal erotic romance, I had to come up with his paranormal quality.
I made Brodie Murdock a kilt-wearing, motorcycle-riding hottie with a secret he
can only share with his destined mate.
Brodie
took over the story so I had to make sure Cora Siegfried was he match in every
way. She became a kick-ass heroine who wouldn’t back down from fighting for the
man she loves.
With
his throne on the line, Brodie Murdock needs to secure his kingdom by taking a
bride. When the only woman he's ever wanted, Cora Siegfried, steps right into
his path, he knows the legends are true. She is his destiny. But will she
agree?

Blurb:
Financial
planner Cora Siegfried has returned to her hometown to settle her late
father's estate. Get in, get out, that's the plan. When she's almost run over by
a kilt-wearing hottie on a motorcycle, all her well-laid plans go up in smoke,
and all she can think about is getting well laid by her
childhood crush. But after what she hoped would be a one-night stand, leaving
him might not be as easy. Talk
about a tartan temptation.
With
his throne on the line, Brodie Murdock needs to secure his kingdom by taking a
bride. When the only woman he's ever wanted steps right into his path, he knows
the legends are true. She is his destiny. The feisty female isn't hard to seduce
into his bed for the night, but she's proving difficult to convince they are
meant for forever. And then there's the secret that could destroy any chance of
their future--a secret he's not ready to confess. Not until his stubborn soul
mate admits she
needs him for more than sex.
Snippet:
She rubbed her brow. That’s what she did when she was gathering her thoughts. “I can’t list the house without a stupid piece of paper from the lawyer, and he had to go away on a family emergency. What about my family emergency? My father died. Nobody cares about that.” Brodie turned the bike off, set it on its kickstand, and stood. He shouldn’t touch her, but he wrapped his arms around her and drew her against him. “I care.”
Doubt filled her dark blue eyes. “Why? Why do you care about me?”
Destiny. She’d think he was crazy, but it was the truth. He’d always understood it. “How could I not care about you?”
Taking a step back, she shook her head. The startled expression on her face told him he’d gone too far.
She hesitated then glared at him. “What do you want?”
He glanced up at the stormy cloud, then back at her. He hadn’t fooled her at all. He was running out of time. He had to win her trust now. “Ice cream. I need ice cream. You need ice cream. We all need ice cream.” He smiled, hoping his charm worked this time.
Disbelief shone in her eyes. “Now?”
