Viscount Vagabond and Devil's Delilah: 5

Viscount Vagabound has a typical hero's character, handsome, rich, proud a man's man. In contrast, The DEVIL's Delilah has the most refreshing hero I have read in all of the romance novel. Instead of your typical handsome, sneering, brute we have Jack, an extremely shy, stuttering book worm who uses his intelligence to get his Delilah. This book his funny and is closer to reality than other romantic novels.

I first picked up Viscount Vagabond in my local library while I was in high school. I fell in love with Loretta Chase's voice and style. Her characters are witty and complex. They are no just the typical hero and heroine. She writes with humor and a sense of fun. I picked up this as soon as it came out. I'm glad that her back issue books are coming out. If you like romance, you should definitely pick up Loretta Chase's novels. These earlier books are really sweet. In Viscount Vagabond, Lord Rand is a reluctant hero to Catherine Pelliston. Through a series of unfortunate events, Catherine ends up in a house if ill repute. He saves her and takes her under his wing. Of course he is determined to send her on her way. He is in no way falling in love with her. At all. Of course, Catherine doesn't want to marry him either. Viscount Vagabond is a delight I love how the characters dance around each other. The Devil's Delilah continues with one of the characters from Viscount Vagabond who finds love himself. Both stories are VERY enjoyable. If you are in the mood for great Regency writing, please pick this book.
