Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Intent upon avenging her brother's reported death, Celia Tregaron leaves Baltimore and heads for England to murder the earl of Ashmore. However, when she ends up in his arms instead, the stage is set for a much more interesting, and more dangerous, game. An impulsive American heroine; a wonderful, wounded hero; and some fascinating though too numerous characters people a story charged with deception, murder, and intrigue. Graceful rather than flamboyant, this sexy historical with well-researched Regency roots combines the ambiance and wit of the traditional Regency with the passionate sensuality of the historical. This is the first historical from Eagle, who has written a number of Regencies (including The Bedeviled Baron, Jove, 1994). [Eagle lives in Little Rock, Ark.]

This review is from: Lady Vengeance (Harper Monogram) (Paperback)

LADY VENGEANCE opens with the beautiful American Celia Tregaron waiting in the bedroom of the Earl of Ashmore. However, she is not there for the usual reasons.

Celia thinks Marcus, the British Earl, is responsible for the death of her brother Ethan during the war of 1812, and has a loaded gun pointed at a, well, delicate area. Celia soon discovers she was about to murder the wrong man, which is fortunate because there is an instant attraction between the Earl and his would-be assassin.

Marcus, at the promptings of his eccentric family, offers to aid Celia in her quest to find her little brother still alive somewhere in England. They are in for a rough ride through the British countryside - dodging bullets, exposing plots, and, of course, lots of juicy love-making.
