AUTHOR’S NOTE

When I conceived of the Dirty Girls Book Club, I hoped that each member would have a chance to enjoy her own sexy literary inspiration and her own erotic romance. In The Dirty Girls Book Club, when the club read historical erotica, marketing executive Georgia Malone found her unlikely soul mate in hockey star Woody Hanrahan. In Dare to Be Dirty, artist and confirmed city girl Kim Chang discovered that the words “cowboy” and “erotic” went together very nicely when she met sexy rodeo star Ty Ronan.

Now the club has decided to research the popularity of BDSM. Will their selection, Bound by Desire, be the catalyst that puts the spark—and the love—back in Dr. Lily Nyland’s faltering ten-year marriage to helicopter bush pilot Dax Xavier?

Thanks to my editors at Berkley, Katherine Pelz and Wendy McCurdy, and to my agent, Emily Sylvan Kim of Prospect Agency, for their support of the Dirty Girls Book Club series.

Thank you to Laura Langston and Nazima Ali for critiquing a draft of this book. Thanks to Lacy Danes and Jodie Esch for research assistance. And my very special thanks to bush helicopter pilots Rob Foers and Steve McKinnon for answering my many questions. All factual errors are mine, not theirs!

Bound by Desire, the book the club is reading, is purely my creation.

If you enjoy Bound to Be Dirty, I hope you’ll check out my other titles at savannafox.com, where you’ll find excerpts, behind-the-scenes notes, recipes, a monthly contest, my newsletter, and other goodies.
