Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
"Mad, bad and dangerous to know" is how Lady Caro Lamb described Lord Byron, but she had no idea. Desperate for a cure for his crippling epilepsy, he was mad enough to try an experimental treatment, one that left not just his words immortal but the man as well. Now living as Damien Ruthven, literary critic extraordinaire, he is intrigued by a new biography of his former life and more so by its author, Brice Ashton. Inviting Brice to New York to talk more about her work, he quickly finds himself falling for her. But his life holds danger for the new couple as his past comes back to haunt them. Borrowing from the lore behind Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Jackson pens a sumptuous modern gothic in which the monsters are real and creates an equally delectable portrait of Byron. Fans of solid love stories like those of Laurell K. Hamilton will enjoy Jackson's tale, which readers will devour in one sitting, then wait hungrily for the next installment. Nina Davis
