Harlequin Intrigue #265: When Night Falls

...and so was a legendary killer. Cassie Lachlin had witnessed some bizarre things as a police photographer. But London circa 1790 was definitely a first! Dark, dashing Anthony Morgan was the only sight she recognized. The mystery man had been at teh crime scene back in the 20th century, which bore an uncanny similarity to those of the infamous Jack the Ripper. But night wrapped its dark cloak around them, drawing Cassie closer to teh man in black. The man against whose will she was powerless.... She faced a chilling realization: more than a handsome lover awaited her here in the past. Dogging her on the mist-enshrouded streets of London, she feared, was Jack himself....

I am an avid reader of all romance both mainstream and traditional. I collect and have an extensive library of romance novells where the heroine is a redhead. I enjoyed how Ms. Ryan was able to incorporate a contemporary romance and historical in one book. She stayed with most of the currently held theories about (JACK) and I found that this book was a totally enjoyable read. Ms. Ryan was also able to write a book that could as easily be called up to date now as it was in 1993. I found it hard to put this book down and have recommended it to several people since discovering it. I only wish that I were able to tell Ms. Ryan how much I enjoyed her work. Overall this book is an enjoyable read once you get past a slightly slow start. My only regret is that we do not find out what happens to Cassie or if she and Morgan lived happily everafter. I would love to see a sequel.
