Almost Perfect
I must admit to really liking these two characters.  Even better, they're story takes place in one of the most beautiful and desolate landscapes I've ever seen.  The border area between Scotland and England has been a place of dissension for eons, probably starting long before the ice bridge between England and the Continent thawed.  Why did Hadrian build that wall of his?  Because it slows down the inhabitants from either side of the wall as they carry stolen cattle, property and, yes, women, back to their own side of the border.  Of course, if we hadn't had the border folk we'd by poorer by some great words, like blackmail, or games, like rugby.  Lucien's lodge, the pele tower, is an actual style of home for the area.  The way the hills fold behind his home is referred to as a "beef-tub", which is essentially a hidden place where the denizens who did manage to carry cattle over Hadrian's wall stashed their stolen beef.  And, the abbey Devanney's house party goes off to visit is based on the lyrical ruins of Melrose Abbey.So, for what it's worth I hope you've enjoyed my stab at a Regency Era romance.  Thanks for trying it!
