Editorial Review:
In her dazzling new historical trilogy, New York Times bestselling author Liz Carlyle plunges readers into the steamy underworld of nineteenth-century London. Among the swirling glitter of English high society, a scandalous rogue gets more than he bargained for in the lady of his desires. Lord Nash is a creature of the night -- his wealth and title provide but a tenuous entry into polite society. Notorious for his sophisticated manners and a dark, dashing elegance, rumors abound of the men he has bankrupted and the women he's left heartbroken. But when Nash leaves his lair for a rare foray into the ton, he faces a lure of temptation all his own -- an extraordinary moment of passion with a mysterious lady in the moonlight -- and an obsession that will lead him into a hellish world of smugglers, spies, and intrigue. And as for his damsel in disguise, the witty and beautiful Miss Xanthia Neville, he soon learns, is as unattainable as she is tempting. And now Nash must decide if she is also dangerous...

Rating:  - Eh
I love to read books from this genre, and have read many great ones from this author. There have even been some from her that I've read ion one sitting! This one however, is still on my nightstand, half read. I just can't get into it. It kinda drags, and the heroines job, while a nice try, just doesn't fit in with the time the book was written. It kinda puts off the rest of the story for me, just not beleivable. I might finish it, but who knows, I've read five other books while this one is ... Read More
Rating:  - Romance Mystery Addict? This One is for You
The story line is already described elsewhere in reviews. Xanthia and Stefan are one of my all time favorite romantic pairs. They are both independent, self sufficient and not interested in marriage, until they meet each other. Ms. Carlyle excells at the combination of romance and mystery. This is my favorite in the series, but I love them all. Ms. Carlyle has a wonderful way of bringing humor, usually through one of my favorite characters, Kem, in to a story to help take the edge off of the ... Read More
Rating: - Sexy & witty
I loved it, you could almost feel the sexual energy thru the pages. I thought that this was a good,fun read.
Rating: - No cookie cutter storyline here...
Dark, dangerous and intelligent, of eastern European and English descent, Lord Stefan Nash, is a compelling, complex man who finds himself captivated and involved with the intelligent, independent. businesswoman, Xanthia, who recently arrived in England after nearly 30 years in Barbados. They are both outsiders, citizens of the world with broad views and interests, unable and unwilling to constrict themselves to the provincial world of english society. The time period is the late 1820s, the political ... Read More
Rating: - The plot just kept getting in the way
I just could not get over the fact that Xanthia was running a shipping empire that measures up to the likes of the East India company. I could really enjoy this of a contemporary, but a historical? A Regency Historical? I don't mind historical inaccuracies and women ahead of their time, but Xanthia just rang too false it got annoying. Lord Nash, the gentleman spy was equally annoying. He was just plain boring and seemed like a rehash of previous Liz Carlyle heroes. I'm pretty wary of reading the rest ... Read More
