Delicious

(Book #1 in the The Marsdens Series)

Famous in Paris, infamous in London, Verity Durant is as well-known for her mouthwatering cuisine as for her scandalous love life. But that's the least of the surprises awaiting her new employer when he arrives at the estate of Fairleigh Park following the unexpected death of his brother. To rising political star Stuart Somerset, Verity Durant is just a name and food is just food, until her first dish touches his lips. Only one other time had he felt such pure arousal-a dangerous night of passion with a stranger, who disappeared at dawn. Ten years is a long time to wait for the main course, but when Verity Durant arrives at his table, there's only one thing that will satisfy Stuart's appetite for more. But is his hunger for lust, revenge-or that rarest of delicacies, love? For Verity's past has a secret that could devour them both even as they reach for the most delicious fruit of all....

She is also somewhat of a mystery since she keeps herself...

A beautifully crafted, sublime fairy tale...

However, this was also the time of Josephine Butler, the Elementary Education Act, Jack the...

Immensely Satisfying!

This is a great book by an absolutely brilliant writer. I adore her complex characterization and her deft use of language. Her unique plots and depth of writing have earned her a place on my auto-buy list. A fresh, new original voice in historical romance. Highly recommended.

Fairy Tale with a naughty twist

I gave it five stars because Sherry Thomas can just write, now doubt about it. It supposed to be taken as a fairy tale-all grown up. So some of the senarios were improbable in real life, but, for me, that's how I interpreted it-a fairy tale with the eeeevil aunty, the prince, and the riches-to-rags-to-happily ever after. The secondary story plays well into this also. I honestly couldn't stop reading this book just to find...
