Wonderful Romance!

Angela Warren is a wonderful character who is not only beautiful but intelligent as well and not at all inclined towards the shallowness of society and the London Season. It does not matter that she calls her mother a "harridan" she is only speaking the truth. Lady Forley is not only a Harridan but a whole bunch of other things that would make the term of harridan seem very tame! She is a most "unatural" mother who cares only for money and titles and what "society" thinks. Angela is put upon and harrassed constantly to make an excellent match with Society's darling, Lord Gabriel Atwater, who makes her uneasy and bores her to tears with his insincere compliments and constant fawning.The one man who does attract her, as well as infuriate and confuse,is the handsome and mysterious Devall Blackthorne who is a social outcast. He not only publicly jilted his sweet and innocent fiance it is rumored that he has killed two men and cuckolded another; resuting in that poor mans death! But Angela thinks there is more to the man, she does not know why, but she trusts him. She is sure that she see's something more in his eyes.Devall Blackthorne can't stop thinking of Angela Warren. She is so unlike other society misses, besides being a little older she is intelligent too, and unafraid of speaking her mind to him. But if she is so different; why is she pursuing an offer from Gabriel Atwater? (his stomach twists at the thought) is she just like all other women after all, only after a title and fortune? She confuses and infuriates him and Devall, despite all his defences finds himself falling in love for the first time. But after the reputation he has built for himself how could he, in good concience offer for her, and subject her to such obvious disdain and ostracism from society? Can he redeem himself enough so that he and Angela can both find happiness?I love books in which the hero is a tortured soul, and needs to find the one woman who can heal him. Devall Blackthorne is such a man and Angela Warren is the perfect woman to help him find himself. This is a wonderful story with great characters despite some minor (very,very minor) little things that a previous viewer mentioned.

Terrific Regency romance, but Ms. Lane's always are

Angela Warren has an ideal suitor -- handsome, titled, wealthy, and the darling of society. So why do her eyes keep straying to the Marquess of Blackthorn? He is a man ostracized for any number of real (or possibly imaginary) crimes, a man who prompts parents to lock their innocent daughters away. Yet the shivers he inspires arise from passion rather than fear. Can he really be as black as rumor reports? Can an innocent find happiness with a scoundrel of the first water?
