Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly

Romance veteran Laurens opens a trilogy with her 16th Regency featuring the tony Cynster family (after Temptation and Surrender). Heather, 25 and unmarried, decides to take control of her future before she is declared "on the shelf." Never a shrinking violet, Heather sneaks into a society soiree hoping to meet the man of her dreams. Instead, she draws the attention of renowned rake Timothy Danvers, Viscount Breckenridge. Though handsome and charming, Heather feels Breckenridge is too old and too patronizing, especially when he condescendingly evicts her from the party. When thugs kidnap Heather, Breckenridge takes off in hot pursuit; after he catches up, Heather persuades him to stick close by and try to learn the kidnappers' motives. Laurens's fans will enjoy this tale of vile villains, a repentant rake, and a sassy spinster. (Sept.)

Library Journal

Heather Cynster has given up on finding at the socially approved balls a dashing hero worthy of marrying, so she tries her luck at a scandalous soirée—only to be confronted by a furious Timothy Danvers, Viscount Breckenridge, who insists she leave while her reputation is still intact. Heather is instead kidnapped, and Timothy heads off in hot pursuit—on his way to Scotland and into the lair of an unknown, embittered assailant out to wreak vengeance on the Cynsters. VERDICT Nonstop adventure, an intriguing plot, clever, resourceful characters, and plenty of Laurens's trademark passion will make this first of the "Cynster Sisters" trilogy another favorite of Cynster fans. Laurens (The Reckless Bride) lives near Melbourne, Australia.
