Book Description

October 26, 2010 Avon

In a time of peril, she fears nothing—except the forbidden passions of her heart.

In Boston, revolution is in the wind—yet none would ever suspect Faith Kingston of treason. But under cover of darkness, the beautiful daughter of a Tory tavern owner becomes the notorious spy “Lady Midnight,” passing valuable secrets to the rebels. Dedicated to fighting British tyranny, she’ll let nothing distract her— until a dark, mesmerizing stranger enters her life.

A reckless, worldly adventurer, Nicholas Grey has returned to troubled Massachusetts seeking revenge for the death of his rebel father. He suspects a local innkeeper, but it’s the man’s breathtaking, ebony-skinned daughter who has truly captured his interest. Nicholas burns for the sensuous, secretive lady—and Faith cannot mask her own blazing desires. But when destiny unites their causes, the passion that draws Midnight into Nicholas’s arms is as dangerous as it is glorious—and it could spell disaster for them both.

1.0 out of 5 stars What Happened?!, December 30, 2010
This review is from: Midnight (Avon) (Kindle Edition)
I've been an avid reader of Beverly Jenkins' books since 'Before the Dawn'. So when 'Midnight' was released I rushed out to pick up my copy. I read all my books from other authors first because I knew that Ms. Jenkins' work is always spicy, hot, informative, passionate, and a page turner. I could not have been more disappointed. The book started out great; however, the end was so disappointing because it seemed rushed. The ending didn't really seem to go with the story line, in addition the book seemed to focus more on the history of the war than the actual characters. It was a lackluster performance in my opinion and her editor should have sent her back to rewrite the ending. I know that Ms. Jenkins' work is always OUTSTANDING so to read this was frustrating to say the least!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars powerful historical romance, October 28, 2010
This review is from: Midnight (Avon) (Mass Market Paperback)
In 1775 Boston, whether you remain a Tory or a rebel, everyone whispers revolt. Nicholas Grey comes home to find his father Primus dead; the British arrested and executed him last December after he met with the notorious "Lady Midnight."

He seeks vengeance for his dad's death. To achieve his objective he must start with Lady Midnight, but has no idea who she is. Nicholas believes a Tory tavern owner is behind his dad's death. However, he is attracted to the innkeeper's daughter Faith Kingston. She is a fierce supporter of freedom though she conceals her seditious activities that support Sons of Liberty. Faith is attracted to Nicholas, but knows to trust no one even if her heart says otherwise.

Once again, the great Beverly Jenkins provides a powerful historical romance as she brings her uncanny sense of time and place to showcase this time the role the Blacks played in the American Revolution. The lead couple is a terrific pairing of a worldly adventurer on a home mission of vengeance and a freedom lover who does more than drink tea as she risks her life as a spy. Her latest work affirms that Ms. Jenkins is one of the best historical writers today with a unique refreshing look at Americana through a perspective not seen enough in the sub-genre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, October 27, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Midnight (Avon) (Kindle Edition)
Ms. Jenkins did it again! I loved the book. As with most of Ms. Jenkins' historical romances, you learn alot about African Americans history while being captivated with fictional characters. The characters Nick & Faith was enchanting. If you love historical romances...this would be a great read.
