The sexy shrew

Hi avid readers.

Remember Kate from Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew"? Well, she's back with a vengeance in a comedy of errors that pits a brilliant mind against a world of shameless sexism.

"The Shrew Untamed" is available at Amazon.com (print and e-book versions) and Smashwords.com (e-book versions).
