A Gentleman At Heart (Zebra Historical Romance)
When her plan to free a young girl from a life of depravity goes awry, Wynne Bedegrayne is saved from an angry mob of men by prizefighter Keanan "Reckless" Milroy. Intrigued by the strong-willed, highborn lady who risks her life and reputation for others less fortunate than herself, Keanan attempts to learn more about Wynne only to discover that she's being courted by his half-brother. As a bastard son, Keanan has a score to settle with the family who disavowed him years ago, and seducing away Wynne from his half-brother offers one way of getting the revenge he craves. Strangely enough, however, Keanan's plans of retaliation no longer seem important once he falls in love. The second in a series featuring the Bedegrayne family highlights a hero and heroine willing to risk scandal and brave danger for love, and the tangled passions and sensual desires that ensnare them are vividly detailed by Pierce, who doesn't shy away from using the darker side of Regency life as a counterpoint to a compelling love story.John CharlesCopyright © American Library Association.
