The barren, Andrew Black, Earl of Townson, has no other
means for an income so he makes an agreement with his enemy that will put an
end to his eight year poverty streak. But, in order to gain his fortune he must
ruin and innocent young lady’s reputation enough to make her flee to America
with her family. Brook Banks came to
London to have a good time, and that’s what she intends to do. Extensively
known for her inclination to disobey the rules of society, she suspects nothing
when an attractive stranger appears on her doorstep making her body quiver like
no other has ever been able to do.
Will Andrew and Brook stick to their original plans, or decide
if a life together is worth the danger.
Andrew Black is not one of those rogues we often read about
in regency romances, and that is what intrigued me the most about this story. Instead,
Black is bullied into agreeing to damage the character of one of the daughters
in the Banks family to get them to run back to America. What drew me to Andrew
right away was his reluctance to do it. This is a champion with principles who
feels torn between doing what is right and doing what he knows is wrong. Brook
is headstrong and in a way very naive when it comes to men’s motives. Though
she has kissed a few and was considered a tease. I related to Brook because I love
a woman who can put up a fight and face up to trouble with her head held high.
