I wasn't sure if I wanted to read this book because I didn't know what lions and lace could have in common.
The story takes place in New York, perhaps around the turn of the 20th century. The irish were trying to find their "place" in the new land they were hoping to call home.
Here, Trevor "the PRedator" Sheridan learns early how to get the wealth and women he wants. An expert at games of power, he played one that would destroy all the famous families that have snubbed him, including the Van Alens. Little did he know the sweet torture he was inflicting upon himself!
Alana Van Alen was born to luxury and high society. Her family had snubbed the Sheridans and now she faced Trevor Sheridan-at his mercy from bankruptcy-with a plan so daring and scandalous that it took her breath away. Anxious to keep her fortune and her secret, she is forced to accept his blackmail offer.

This book surprises. While the ending isn't a surprise, how it gets there is.

the cover has minor tears, the illustration page has some damage, but the text pages are good.
