I just finished reading "Racing with the Wind" by Regan WalkerIt's her first novel in her trilogy "Agents of the Crown".I have never read any books by this author and I was totally surprised!This historical romance is set in France/England. Since so many completeReviews were previously done, I will write a short one.I loved her characters!Mary Campbell "The Swan" is a headstrong and outspoken heroine,who is very much interested in politics, she also wants to be free.She is wild like the wind and very different from the other ladies in her entourage.Hugh Redgrave "The Nighthawk" is a charming hero who also want to be free and does not want to marry...until he meets Mary...the more he dicovers about Mary the more she captivates him. Sparks will shine among those two characters.Wonderful intrique! Mystery! Historical details well researched! It's reveals the story of spies in the service of the Prince Regent. A great story of suspense and romance in the Regency period. A beautiful romance, evocative and emotionally rich with her characters.I really enjoyed reading this novel, it's very well written by Ms. Walker.Can't wait to read her two short novella: The Shamrock & the Rose and Holly and the Thisles.Important note from a french reader, Ms. Walker did not abuse of french expressions and they were very well translated without any errors, I appreciate this very much!I highly recommend this book! A trilogy not to be missed!
