El decoro apropiado nunca ha sido fácil para Carlotta Anne Fairleigh, ni siquiera esta noche, cuando la encantadora e impetuosa señorita finalmente hará su debut. Mientras espera para hacer su entrada, no puede evitar preguntarse acerca de la casa oscura de al lado, la casa supuestamente abandonada de Hayden St. Clair, el hombre que la sociedad ha apodado el "Marqués asesino". Ciertamente, un pequeño vistazo a través de su ventana antes de las festividades sería inofensivo... Y, naturalmente, esta última "aventura" termina en desastre, comprometiendo por completo la reputación de la debutante en ciernes y dejándola de repente, impensablemente... ¡prometida! Pronto se encuentra en camino a las tierras salvajes de Cornualles en compañía del apuesto y misterioso marqués cuyo nombre la sociedad susurra con miedo y odio. Sin embargo, hay algo emocionante, y sorprendentemente tierno, en su oscuro e inalcanzable novio, y el deseo en sus ojos es innegable. Pero antes de que Lottie se rinda a los anhelos de su corazón, debe descubrir los secretos del pasado de Hayden, sin importar cuán escandalosos o peligrosos puedan ser. Look this book is readable because Teresa Medeiros is a good writer. On the other hand, some serious "Jane Eyre" moments going on here. Way too many plot points and characters. -Harriet -Ned Townsend -Ghost -Old crone teacher The paranormal aspect definitely could have been omitted. The beginning of the story and first couple chapters were great with Hayden and Lottie displaying fantastic friction, sexual tension, and chemistry. Their competing dialogue had me highly anticipating their relationship. Unfortunately, the chemistry disappears as soon as they get married. The story switches to Lottie feeling lost in Cornwall and dealing with Hayden's bratty but oh so misunderstood daughter. Even though I thought the book was pretty mediocre and was anticipating the ending it still ended up feeling abrupt. Read up until Hayden and Lottie get married, it's all down hill from there. (Haha, maybe this was a philosophical/political point from Medeiros) Medeiros has way better books out there, this one is can be skipped. I never read old school romance like this, but I picked this up on a whim at the user book store while looking for a romance recommended by a friend, and it was actually a lot fun. Sure it had the purple prose and unbelievable plot points but i did like both the hero and heroine and the sexy bits were sexy. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Proper decorum has never come easily to Carlotta Anne Fairleigh--not even tonight, when the lovely, impetuous miss is finally making her debut. As she waits to make her entrance, she can't help wondering about the darkened house next door, the supposedly abandoned home of Hayden St. Clair, the man society has dubbed the "Murderous Marquess." Certainly one small peek through his window before the festivities would be harmless . . . And, naturally, this latest "adventure" ends in disaster, thoroughly compromising the budding debutante's reputation and leaving her suddenly, unthinkably . . . betrothed! Soon she's en route to the wilds of Cornwall in the company of the handsome, mysterious marquess whose name the ton whisper with fear and loathing. Yet there is something thrilling--and surprisingly tender--about her dark, unreachable groom, and the desire in his eyes is undeniable. But before Lottie will surrender to the yearnings in her heart, she must unlock the secrets of Hayden's past, no matter how scandalous--or perilous--they may be.
