American Title IV Winner: THE MAGIC KNOT by Helen Scott Taylor
|
A few months ago, we introduced you to 10 paranormal-author contestants for the fourth American Title competition. Tough as it was, you voted every month to remove two aspiring authors from the roster, and now it's down to one -- American Title's first Brit to win! Helen Scott Taylor's entry, THE MAGIC KNOT, is RT BOOKreviews and Dorchester Publishing's American Title IV winner. RT thanks everybody who made our last American Title contest such a success -- readers, contestants, and judges Flavia Knightsbridge, Hilary Ross and Leslie Kazanjian.
"Helen Scott Taylor is one of the most exciting new voices I've read this year," says Alicia Condon, vice president, editorial director at Dorchester, who will be Taylor's editor. "I can't wait to get readers' reactions to her unique combination of captivating magic, a truly dreadful villain and a motorcycle-riding hero to die for."

Message From Helen Scott Taylor, American Title IV Winner:
What an incredible few months! I can hardly believe the contest is over. When I received the e-mail, I shouted for my daughter, and we danced around the office. I'm still not sure my feet are back on solid ground.
Thank you, Romantic Times and Dorchester Publishing, for giving me this chance to have my first book published. Seeing excerpts from my story in Romantic Times was a treat in itself.
There are so many people to thank, I hardly know where to begin. The other finalists have been wonderfully supportive throughout the contest. Leslie, Hilary and Flavia have entertained us with their insightful comments. But most of all, I'm eternally grateful to everyone who voted for THE MAGIC KNOT. If you enjoyed my entries, you can read the rest of Rose and Niall's story when The Magic Knot is released in February 2009! For more details, visit helenscotttaylor.com.
