Description
From "a delightful new voice in historical romance" (Tessa Dare, New York Times bestselling author) comes a scandalous Regency romance about a sinful rogue who falls in love with his best-friend's little sister.
Lady Olivia Sherbourne isn't shy about speaking her mind, except when it comes to James Averill. For ten long years he has been her brother's best friend and her heart's only desire. But when Olivia hears James will soon set sail for an expedition to Egypt, she knows the time has come to make her move. It's now or never . . .
James has always found Olivia bewitchingly attractive, but what kind of gentleman takes up with his best friend's sister? Not that he's thinking particularly gentlemanly thoughts when she appears on his exploratory trip-three hundred miles from home — and incites a tavern fight. No matter what the devil she's doing there, it's his duty to see her safely back to her family. But how safe will she be when every starlit night brings wicked temptation?

      • bioText: Anne Barton began swiping romance novels off her mom's bookshelf as a teenager, so when she had the chance to spend a semester in London-home to her favorite heroes-she packed her bags and promptly fell in love with the city, its history, and its pubs. She dreamed of writing romance, but somehow ended up a software analyst instead.
        Fortunately, a few years and a few careers later, Anne found her way back to writing the stories she loves and in 2011 won the Romance Writers of America's Golden Heart® for Regency Historical Romance. She lives in Maryland with her husband (who, sadly, is not a peer of the realm-but a great guy nonetheless) and her three children, who try valiantly not to roll their eyes whenever she quotes Jane Austen. Her weaknesses include reality TV, cute-but-impractical shoes, and caffeinated beverages of all kinds.

        September 8, 2014
        Barton’s third Honeycote Regency romance (after Once She Was Tempted) never becomes more than the sum of its clichéd parts. Olivia Sherbourne has loved her brother’s best friend, solicitor James Averill, from afar for more than a decade. His impending departure on an archaeological expedition provokes her to reveal her feelings. James claims he is not interested, but he kisses her anyway, so she runs away from her family to follow him, which puts them in a series of compromising positions. It’s unclear why James becomes attracted to Olivia, and her years of pining are neither reasonable nor admirable. Additional devices to keep the lovers apart and throw them together, including a sprained ankle and an important letter, are uninspired, and the episodes are badly paced. Barton’s prose is competent, but the narrative, as a whole, is entirely generic.
