A Dangerous Desire or McKay Makes a Match

[janne_d]

A Novel of Romance by a Lady

All Rodney McKay had thought he wanted was to be left alone with his theories and hypotheses. Being abducted and meeting the intriguing John Sheppard had put paid to that. Rodney understood his own desires rather better now, but society’s laws and conventions opposed him and Sheppard was surely far out of his reach.

A/N: My deepest gratitude to torakowalski for her invaluable assistance, enthusiasm and encouragement throughout. Inspired and influenced by Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer, Bernard Cornwell, Colin Firth’s wet shirt, Matthew MacFadyen’s breeches and far too many Mills and Boon Regency Romances read as a teenager. Plot structure freely adapted from “Fair Juno” by Stephanie Laurens.
Caveat: Although research was perpetrated, no claims are made to historical accuracy. All mistakes are my own.

Three years and more after you wrote it, I must have read this story a dozen times. I enjoy it so much. Thank you for writing it.

You know, I've been feeling very demoralised about writing lately because I haven't really written anything for ages and it is hard to get back into it. But reading your comment has lifted my spirits massively - it is really marvellous to know you've come back and reread this and that I've managed something that someone can enjoy enough for that. So thank you very much - you have made my day ♥
