To Purchase
Blurb: Miss Chelsea Bellamy is desperate
Her beloved brother is being held for ransom! Impoverished after the deaths of her parents, Chelsea doesn't have five shillings, never mind the five hundred pounds the kidnappers are demanding. With no one to turn to, she resorts to highway robbery to raise the sum.
Lord Anthony Grenville is bored
Viscount Montrose's coach is overtaken by a highwayman—who turns out to be no man at all! Anthony hasn't been this intrigued by anything, or anyone, since his return from the war. And when he catches the flame-haired thief breaking into his London house to further fill her coffers, he comes up with a plan to rescue her brother—and resolves to seduce her into his bed!
Their passion is mutual
Chelsea accepts Anthony's aid, but she'll never become his mistress—even if the thought of it fills her veins with liquid fire...
Review: This was a really good story. Filled to the brim with action, lust, want, passion and theft :) I really liked the way all the characters meshed together and the lengths they went to to try and discover who kidnapped her brother.
This is one that I plan on re-reading in the future and will have my eyes open for more from this author. Ms Tarr’s ability to create a vivid, heart-stopping tale sucked me in. Her jump off the pages characters were full of life and interesting. All in all a great read :)
