Harlequin's Readers Choice program brings back four of Michael's editorially-connected Regency romances. Kit Wilde, Earl of Bourne, pledged to return home from the war and flirt with every well-financed London lady. He did not intend to marry the first country lass he kissed. Being bound forever to Miss Jane Maitland should have sent the Earl scurrying--but he soon sees blatant desire in his bride's eyes. Reissue.
This book was a fun Regency Adventure. Lord Bourne is back from the wars and meets Jenny storming across his garden attached to a trap. She is irate, he is bewildered. He assumes that she is a village miss who has trespassed on his property. They share a passionate kiss. Lord Bourne accepts a dinner engagement with the Duke and discovers Jenny is his daughter. Oops! In the regency tradition, Bourne has compromised Jenny by kissing her... I actually enjoyed these characters as they developed and the story resolved itself. This is an early Kasey Michaels novel - not as solid as her current novels, but entertaining nontheless. As a result of this, I also purchased "The Top Lofty Lord Thorne" - the next in the series.
