Madame Alexandra Larchmont was never supposed to fall in love , especially with a viscount....but never say never
Regency romance - He came to town to find a bride. She pulled herself up from abject poverty. And a chance encounter four years ago has haunted them both; now they are free to explore their destinies. Good story line; interesting characters; a couple of sizzling sex scenes; and just a tad predictable.
excellent read. I really enjoyed this book.
I loved this book! Colin and Alexandra were perfect for one another, and the book moved right along to it's surprising conclusion.
Very good. A good sequel to Not Quite a Gentleman.
The cards have warned Alexandra for years about a dark-haired stranger who would wreak havoc with her life, so when she sees him at a soiree, her first thought is to run. Unfortunately, she overhears a murder plot, and the only person she can turn to for help is a man she knows she should stay away from, a man who eyes her with an undisguised hunger.
