About Us
3 opinionated book sluts
1 shared obsession for reading most things romance or fantasy related
1 kick ass blog
Welcome to The Scarlet Corset.
The History:
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a reader in possession of a book must be in want of a blog. One fine day 3 friends came together and decided to share their snark and opinions with the world or…… the 5 people willing to view it. While they had differing preferences on genre, they all firmly believed in calling a spade a spade or in this case not waxing poetic over a book that was barely readable crap. Believing others might benefit from their praise and/or mud slinging , they got down to business. And the rest is history. Now sit back, relax and enjoy the ride as we bring you a little bit of snark, cackle and props.
The Sluttery:
Mistress: Consumes Urban Fantasy,Paranormal Romance,& Romantic Sci Fi/Fantasy novels like heroin laced chocolate chunk cookies. She hearts monsters big and small... creatures sexy and horrifying. But alas, theres much muck to wade through and many time sucks to tame. So she's ever vigilant in hunting for quality fire & magic.
Reader: Devours regencies by the truckload. She lurves some major tortured hero angst and nothing revs her engine like an arrogant, witty, overbred Englishman. The reason why she loves heroes like this is because when they fall, they have far to fall, the fall is hard, and it's bewildering to them (and highly entertaining for the reader).
Wanderer: With a top ramen budget what better way to travel than through a good book. From historical hook-ups to contemporary couplings, urban fantasies to paranormal phenomena, her frequent flier miles have reached Guinness World record status. She eagerly awaits her next adventure!

I (Heather Heaton) am recommending my new ebook ("Her Letters from Prison") as a motivational resource for reading pleasure, review, contemplation, and comment. My ebook will validate your inquisitive doubts about what goes on in women’s prisons; it can justify the efforts spent toward ministries to women’s prisons; and it can be an inspirational (tell-it-like-it-is) resource for drug rehab/prevention programs. The book is non-fiction (It is what it is!); and the original letters are included as images for authenticity. You can go to http://www.heather-heaton.com and purchase “Her Letters from Prison”, Parts 1 and 2.
If you don’t happen to own a Kindle, Nook, or some other eReader device, then download the FREE Adobe Digital Editions software to your computer to read the “epub” version of my ebook as purchased from Smashwords. Multiple versions of my ebook are available on Smashwords.
My recently published ebook is entitled ("Her Letters from Prison: Part 1 & Part 2", by Heather Heaton). The ebook was published at Smashwords (www.smashwords.com). A brief description of the ebook follows:
1. Breanna tells the true story of her experiences in prison through her letters to her friend Heath. This is a story of survival and a quest to make a better life. The letters describe the daily shocking events of prison life involving drugs, sex, utter devastation and humiliation, anger, hopelessness, despair, and finally happiness and hope.
2. Breanna's "truth" stands still even as the world around her trembles and burns! Bad things do happen to good people; and Breanna is the perfect example of this truth.
3. Breanna's inner strengths and principles eventually win out over the corruption and evil that surrounds her. With God's help, Breanna survives the horrible experiences of prison life and regains her self-confidence and hope for a better life.
4. "Breanna" was an inmate at Tutwiler Women's Prison from 2007 to 2009.
5. "Breanna" benefitted from women's prison ministries and the LIFE Tech-Wetumpka state-funded self-help program.
Sincerely,
Heather Heaton

Customer/Reader Review of “Her Letters from Prison”
Heather, ever since you first contacted me about your ebooks (and when I received them) I have been giving them traction. At least two women on my case load checked them out, (like a library card so I would get them back) and were very moved by the content. I haven’t had another problem with their behavior since they read them. So…I know they are working. They should be required reading, ordered by a Judge before women are sentenced to probation, so that they would fully understand the consequences of their behavior. The coverage by The Prison Art Coalition blog is very good news both for Heather and for those that will read her story.
