Book Description:
Isabeau DeBurgh, a beautiful woman with a hot temper and a vocabulary to match, earns a living at what she does best -- highway robbery. But the night she tries to rob Lord Griffin Stone, an aristocratic black sheep just back from America, her luck runs out; he wounds her in a sword fight. Griffin won't turn Isabeau over to the authorities (who might hang her) nor turn her loose to steal, so he decides to take her home, dress her up and teach her the finer points of etiquette.
Returning to the ancestral manse, Griffin faces the financial shambles of his late brother's estate, a sullen and secretive nephew, a grandmother with the charm of a pit viper, and a satanic cult. Meanwhile Isabeau develops a soft spot in her heart for Griffin, as he does for her. And why not? Compared to the rest of the crew, a mere thief looks pretty attractive.

Genie T. (Back cover: Eyes snapping emerald fire, Isabeau DeBurgh-alias the Devil's Flame-sat motionless upon her fine black stallion. The most feared and notorious highwayman of them all was about to strike. But Lord Griffin Stone, her victim this night, feared nothing. In a flash the nobleman had the brigand at the point of his rapier, discovering too late the cascading red curls beneath his assailant's costume. His youthful, rakehell ways tamed by ten years exile in America, Griff would not see this lovely, belligerent girl hanged-nor set her free to once more terrorize the highways. His only choice was to take the spitfire home to his ancestral estate, Darkling Moor, and somehow contrive to fashion her into a lady.
