Book one-hundred-and-thirty-eight: Lady of Desire

Lady of Desire (2004)
Gaelen Foley

Rating: 3/5

I’m glad this series is actually getting better, rather than worse as so many do. I think Foley’s writing is improving, or maybe I’m just getting used to it?

I liked the plot here too…. Although their meeting is semi-“mistaken identity”…


Impetuous Lady Jacinda Knight is the daughter of a scandalous woman--and Society predicts she'll follow in her mother's footsteps. Then one night, in flight from an arranged and loveless marriage, Jacinda finds herself alone on a dangerous street face-to-face with Billy Blade, the notorious leader of a band of thieves. His stolen kisses awaken in her a longing for a man she can never possess. A handsome outlaw running from a secret past, Billy Blade has never met a woman like Jacinda-her fiery innocence and blossoming sensuality set his rebel's heart ablaze. Having turned his back on the privilege and power of his tyrannical father's house years before, he vows to return to reclaim his title, Earl of Rackford-to win the love of the ravishing beauty who has stolen his heart.
