"Victoria Alexander delivers on all counts!" Stephanie Laurens
Pamela is a mystery Alexei is determined to solve....
Prince Alexie of Avalonia is a master at the art of sedution, but when a mysterious young woman he meets at a masked ball spends the night in bed, he finds he is touched in ways he cannot forget. Still, he wonders if she was real or a dream spun of moonlight.
Alexei might well be a temptation Pamela cannot resist...
And Miss Pamela Effington is no dream. Certainly, succumbing to the prince's seduction was madness. Now she's come to her senses and is thankful their paths will never cross again. Even if they do, he had never truly seen her face.
But they are both in for the shock of their lives. For back in London, determined to lead a blameless life, Pamela finds Alexei occupying her home-a townhouse she's only recently inherited-and he refuses to leave. A feigned courtship seems an excellent idea, and soon the mystery and temptaion begin all over again.

Wonderful love story
In this addition to bestselling author Victoria Alexander's post-Regency romance series about the Effington family, a chance-met couple rediscover their passion. Four years ago in Venice, Miss Pamela Effington shared a breathtaking night of lovemaking with Prince Alexei of Avalonia, and then slipped out of his bed at dawn without divulging her true identity. Now the prince is an exile and, in a bizarre coincidence, has taken up tenancy in Pamela's newly inherited London townhouse. In order to salvage both their reputations, the two must pretend to be betrothed, all the while aching to exchange the false bond for a true one....
A Great period romance novel!
