I loved this book a lot.  While the author is widely known in the contemporary genre, I found her Regency novels, this and it's predecessor Strictly Seduction, were true to the era.  This was a typical tale of wanting what you can't have, even if you can't help yourself. Kira, is one of the strongest heroines I have ever read from the time period.  She took what everyone threw at her, still held her head high, and most importantly she kept her dreams alive.  While Gavin is the protector of his family and it's name after his father nearly ruined them.  Doing all he can not to sully the name any farther by involving more scandal including proving right all the terrible things the ton called Kira, who was set to wed Gavin's cousin.  But little did he know how that plan would backfire. Or how badly he would get burned in the process.  I suggest this book to anyone who is a fan of the author, historicals or angst filled heros.  Excellent work by Ms. Bradley/Black.
