A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Blue Devil is a dashing, brooding spy set to catch a traitor who uses a finishing school for young ladies as a base of operations. But he’s having trouble keeping his mind on his mission, for one of the students reminds him too much of the mysterious Titania, a fairy queen who fled after they kissed at a glittering masquerade ball. Kathryn St. David is pretending to be a student at the school in order to recover her dear auntie’s lost diary, which contains a scandalous secret that could ruin them both. But she’s horrified to discover that her roommate is the ward of the notorious, darkly attractive Marquis of Blackshire--who seems to be keeping secrets of his own. Will he recognize her as the fairy queen and expose her as the lady who kissed him like a strumpet in the moonlight? A mix of humor, angst, and derring-do all rolled up in a traditional Regency comedy-of-manners: masquerades, mistaken identities, chase scenes, spies, and dotty (or are they?) old ladies. Regency romance at its best! Reviews: “An excellent debut novel! Four Stars!” -- RT Book Club “An interesting debut. An author to watch!” -- The Romance Reader “This book is excellent! I am stunned to learn it was a debut novel! She already has an avid fan in myself! Well written with a delicious touch of mystery!” -- Huntress Reviews “Fun . . . laugh out loud.” -- English Rose Clean Romance Reviews
