Count Tornan Wolvraine has lived his life as a man cursed by a gypsy. With his ability to become a wolf, he survives on instinct instead of emotions. When he hears of the impending marriage of his sworn enemy, the wolf hunter to a gypsy, he kidnaps the bride and by control of the old enchantment, he acts upon animalistic impulses, bonding him to the reluctant Galena in a ritual mating where his pack of wolf-shifter's bare witness.
Can a gypsy curse destroy love or will Tornan and Galena's passion not get a chance at surviving the master wolf hunter's vengeance?

An Interview with Brenda Williamson
By Katie Raines, Assistant for The Romance Studio
KR: Brenda, thanks for joining us at TRS BLUE. Today you're
talking to us about Tornan's Curse. What can you tell us
about it?BW: I love this story. I've blended werewolves and gypsies into a backdrop of the fifteenth century. I've altered the myths surrounding some and introduced several superstitions of the gypsies.
KR: A werewolf story that reads like a classic but with all
the heat today's reader demands. Where did you get the idea
for this story?
BW: I like scary stories, and werewolves and vampires are some of my favorite paranormal subjects. Medieval history is also a terrific era, so it seemed natural to combine as much as I loved into one story.
KR: What, in your opinion, makes it stand out from other
such tales on the market right now?
BW: To give a specific reason to what makes this story different from others would require me to give away the twists in the plot, and it is for the reader to discover what makes the story stand out.
KR: What sort of research did you do on this project? BW: I read a lot about Transylvania, Romania, the fifteenth century and Gypsies
to create the atmosphere and characters.
KR: What did you like best about Count Tornan Wolvraine? BW: His possessiveness. Usually that kind of man is a jerk, but it suited him. He needed the strength to take what he wanted, when he wanted for his survival in the animalistic world in which he lived.
KR: So what do you have coming up for readers in the
remainder of 2008?
BW: An expanded version of Morgandy's Lover (Loose-id) which is a shape-shifter historical. The expanded version of Fiachra's Kiss (Whiskey Creek Press Torrid), a story of Samhain. A futuristic called Sexual Deceptions(Whiskey Creek Press Torrid), which is a two story anthology series I'm writing with Rayne Forrest. And Her Savage Lover (Aspen Mountain Press) an Old West Indian historical Romance.
KR: Will you be making any appearances in the near future?
BW: I don't go out in public much. I'm a homebody and just managed to attend my first Romantic Times Book Lover's Convention this year. Something I hope I'll be doing every year because it was terrific to meet so many of my online friends.
KR: Any vacation plans this year? Do you sneak in writing
on your vacation? BW: I'm headed for Brockway, Pennsylvania for July 4th. They have a wonderful week-long celebration and it's a great time to have a family reunion. And yes, I always manage to do some writing. I can't go a day without trying to write a sentence or a scene. .
KR: What's your idea of a really good writing session? BW: Going four or five hours without interruptions. I can accomplish a lot.
KR: What's your idea of a perfect day? BW: Just writing and not having to take time to do the promotional work or housework.
KR: Thank you!
