Klappentext:
A scandalous liaison with a mysterious, disreputable rogue may be the only way the desperate lady can guard her shocking secret...
He is called "Duke of Sin" ... a notorious rogue and recluse whose reputation is as black as the Cornish night. They speak of his conquests, his past, and his mysteries in breathless whispers. And now lovely and desperate Vivian Rael-Lamont has no choice but to enter William Raleigh's lair.
Vivian prayed that the scandal that drove her from London would never be revealed -- but now she will be exposed to the world... unless William can protect her. She has heard the rumors about the infamous Duke of Sin, yet she is unprepared for the man's raw, sensuous power... or for the traitorous response of her own body. Surrender, however, could prove most dangerous indeed -- for both of them. For while the duke is intrigued by the guarded, intoxicating lady who has invaded his solitude -- and fully intends to discern her every secret through sweet, unhurried seduction -- it is his own heart that will be imperiled when passion takes them farther than he ever intended.
Meine Meinung:
Ach, ein buch zum aufseufzen.
- ein gequälter held, der nicht vor der liebe davon rennt, sondern alles daran setzt, sie zu gewinnen,
- eine heldin, die mit beiden beiden im leben steht, um das kämpft, was ihr wichtig ist und sich nicht selbst verratet
- und eine glaubwürdige, wirklich gute handlung.
was will man mehr in einem buch.
Adele Ashworth schafft es ohne die - in allzu vielen historicals üblichen- blöden missverständnisse auszukommen.
die protagonisten reden miteinander und kämpfen gemeinsam um ihre zukunft. einfach wunderschön!!
alle unter euch, die Lisa Kleypas mögen, werden sicherlich auch Adele Ashworth lieben.
