Roderica Delamore has a "gift." Cursed with the unwanted ability to hear the thoughts of others, she is dedicated to raising her family's prize thoroughbreds and resigned to living without love. But one man's mind is inexplicably closed to her: a mysterious Irish rogue who may be the lover she has been dreaming of her entire life.
They call Faelan Savigar "the Devil Earl" -- a handsome, impoverished lord damned by dark rumor and whispered innuendo. But the secrets Faelan hides within are what stir Roderica's desire -- and her need to experience the intoxicating ecstasy of his kiss. But be he liar, swindler, or worse, Roderica knows she can have no other -- and she will trust this enigmatic stranger with her life ... and her heart.

c. 1797 Roderica is cursed with the ability to hear the thoughts of others. She is resigned to living without love until she meets Faelan "the devil earl", who can hide his thoughts. A great story!

A fun book with romance and mind-reading.

This was not a good book. I'm sorry, but somewhere between the overly dramatic female and the man having another pregnant chick on the side just kind of turned me off it. I stopped reading it a little over halfway through. It annoyed me that bad.

She has the gift to hear the thoughts of others-but not of the one who may be the man of her dreams
