The Rake and The Recluse: Part 4 Ruination

It's that time again! Jenn LeBlanc is back with Part 4 of her WICKed Blog Tour. I hope you've been enjoying learning all sorts of fun things to do in carriages and closet because I have. Today she tells us what makes her tick and why she's into men in tight pants. 
I also hope you've been following Jenn around and commenting on her blog tour because there is a Kindle Fire up for grabs! So, enough with the chit chat.






Jamie love!!! I am swooning from writing about James West TRAINS for Ramblings From This Chick’s guest post today. I believe I may have discovered where all my kink came from . I had no idea. My birthday is Sunday if anyone wants to get me THE WILD WILD WEST (TV show) on DVD feel free. I need to see it again. 

But, again, I digress, as I am wont to do.

So we have talked carriages and closets here, yes? Where else can we arrange for an illicit rendezvous?

So I am still starstruck by my googling of James West. Have you seen his pants? I’m just saying, Robert Conrad makes me swoon. uh...Robert Conrad as the original James West makes me swoon. Will Smith did not work as a replacment, he did not wear the super tight pants, he was no James West. Simple.

This got me thinking about how the shows I watched as a kid shaped who I am today, because a beautiful man in tight pants who loves cool gadgets and women? What else did I watch? Fantasy Island. Well that one is obvious as I love to make stuff up, and I’m a HUGE daydream believer.

I did not like Charlie’s Angels, so I guess that leaves out the lesbian suspense. (perfectly fine for someone else! Just not me) I never watched the evening soaps like Dallas and Dynasty.


What else. Wild Wild West, Fantasy Island, OH! Mork and Mindy. Loved Mork and Mindy, so I have a quirky sense of humor, which also comes from The Muppet Show. But what I really learned from the Muppet Show is 30 second story telling. Little snippets of a greater story. BOOM. You’re in you’re out it’s meaningful and wonderful. 

I really have gone off on a tangent here.

I suppose that’s to be expected when my brain has spent the week staring at pictures of pervy Perry. (pardon)

So tell me. What shows do you remember from YOUR childhood? What shaped the way you think about things? Up for grabs is the complete serial novel. If you already have it, I’ll send you some swag, and my swag is pretty awesome. Just sayin’.

Blurb:

A woman out of time.
A man stifled by propriety.
A nemesis determined to take her away.
A brother to the rescue.

How will a powerful Duke deal with a woman who doesn't know her place? How will a woman used to the 21st century survive in time where she is considered property?
Francine Larrabee woke up on the wrong side of the century. She was fairly certain she went to sleep in her own comfy bed, but she doesn’t quite seem to be there now. Only adding to her problems is that she has no voice, is constantly being glowered at by a large, stunning man who is obsessed with propriety, and she is apparently betrothed to another horrid little man, determined to ruin her, and any other girls that get in his way.

How does she find herself in the past, when she couldn’t even find herself in her present? How does a self sufficient businesswoman survive in a time when women were still considered property for the whole of their lives and what is she going to do with this man who draws her to him so fiercely.
