Since she was cruelly left at the altar at the age of twenty-two, Lady Julianna Sterling has resolved to have nothing to do with men. So she is shocked to discover she has unwelcome feelings for the very worst of the breed -- a dangerous, unbearably handsome highwayman who has set upon her coach in the countryside and taken her captive. Worse still, her righteous ire turns quickly to disappointment when the irresistible outlaw sets her free.
Viscount Dane Granville knows he should not have revealed his face to the enchanting Lady Julianna -- for he has compromised the secret mission he has undertaken for the Crown in the guise of the notorious Magpie. Now their paths are crossing once more, and Dane aches to taste again the sweetness of her kiss. But he must resist what his heart demands, for their passion can only lead to perils beyond imagining ...

This was my first intro to Samantha James and I found it an interesting read. However, it's the 3rd in a series of three that apparently includes "A Perfect Bride" and "A Perfect Groom" so now I'l be on the look-out for these other two to read as well!

Final in the trilogy. A good read.

Another great book from Ms. James. The conclusion to her wonderful Sterling Triology.

The third book of the Sterling series. Set in the regency period. Julianna Sterling is an independent woman who owns two homes; a townhouse in London and a small home in Bath. She has little use for men, since she was left at the altar, seven years before. Then she is taken captive by a highwayman. While this plot sounds like it is too trite to be a good book-all that takes place before page 30-and that is only the beginning!

Last book of the series. Had likable characters. Although I liked the second book the best of the series, this one was okay.

I am a big fan of Ms. James, but this one did not capture my interest for some reason

A great story as are the others in this series. If you like Historical Regency romance you'll like these.
