Book Description:
Celebrated storyteller Gaelen Foley brings her craft to new heights with Devil Takes a Bride, the seductive tale of a man bent on revenge and the beauty who teaches him to love again....
In the quiet English countryside, far from the intrigues of London, Lizzie Carlisle slowly mends her broken heart, devoting herself to her new position as lady's companion to the Dowager Viscountess Strathmore -- until her peaceful life is turned upside down by a visit from "Devil" Strathmore, the old woman's untamed nephew -- a dangerously handsome man whose wicked reputation hides a tortured soul.
Devlin Kimball, Lord Strathmore, has spent years adventuring on the high seas, struggling to make his peace with the tragedy that claimed the lives of his family. But now he has uncovered the dark truth behind the so-called accident and swears retribution. He has no intention of taking a bride -- until his eccentric aunt's will forces Lizzie and him together, and Devlin finds his path to vengeance blocked by the stubborn but oh-so-tempting Miss Carlisle. Her passionate nature rivals his own. But disillusioned once by love, Lizzie will accept nothing less than his true devotion....

Lindsey M. (First off, not totally enamored of the title, but sometimes romance novels can be a little cheesy. It was good, enjoyable, solid. Probably not something I will ever have to read again. The story was very compelling, but not altogether believable. This particular book made me dislike the character of Alec Knight more than the previous books, so not sure how reading his story next will be because he is not exactly a sympathetic hero. Which is one the problems of this book -you come away thinking more about him than the two people who were the main characters. Keep it on your list, but don't bump anything else for it.
R K E. (Devlin is the hero bent on avenging his family's tragic death in a fire. The heroine is the hero's aunt's companion. Devlin admires her devotion to his aunt. Despite her sharp tongue, he's intrigued by Elizabeth's strength and passion. But before Devlin can be free to love, he will have his revenge on the notorious noblemen responsible for his parents' deaths. Great romantic suspense. Intense emotions.
Excellent book in the Knight series about Devlin earl of strathmore aka "devil" strathmore and Lizzie Carlyle, former companion to Jacinda Knight.
Devlin is bent on revenge, trying to determine who caused the inn fire that killed his entire family. He must choose between revenge and the love of the only woman he's ever loved. Can she heal him before it's too late for both of them.
Like all of Foley's books, there's a great depth of character development and an emotional intensity absent from most other authors. Very good and steamy romance, with appealing characters.
