       About the book

      Mills & Boon partnered with Scantilly by Curvy Kate to launch The Scantilly Tales, a romantic flash-fiction competition for women wanting to reveal their hidden writing talents and unleash their seductive side.

      Six tantalising short stories were released each week on the Curvy Kate website. Fans and aspiring authors were asked to use their writing prowess to submit the seventh, and final, story, ultimately deciding how these sexy tales would end.

      Entries were judged by an expert panel including bestselling Mills & Boon author Heidi Rice, Scantilly Brand Manager Hannah Isichei and Mills & Boon Editor, Charlotte Mursell.

      The Scantilly Tales contains all seven stories (#ScantillyTales), including the winning tale by the equally talented and stunning Danielle Shoebottom.
