Description de l’éditeur
New to the art recovery world, agent Gwen Davies takes on her very first “repo” assignment for Artemis, Inc.: restoring a solid gold, bejeweled Venetian mask to its rightful owner. But she’s mortified to learn that she’s stolen back a carefully engineered fake, and the disappointed client is a man she’d hoped to never see again.
Quinn Lawson’s clean-cut corporate image belies his troubled, tattooed, bad-boy past. But when he’s held accountable for the missing mask, he’s forced to return to his shady ways and team up with Gwen in order to find the real one. Unfortunately the mask’s centuries-old curse is alive and well—and so is the stranger who’s prepared to kill for it. As their quest for the original mask takes Quinn and Gwen through the romantic, twisting canals of old Venice, danger forces them closer together than they ever expected to be—again.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Regency fans will thrill to this superbly sensual tale of an icy widow and two decadent rakes. When the duke of Rothay and the earl of Manderville make a foolish and scandalously public wager over which of them is the more skillful lover, the firmly respectable and notoriously unavailable Lady Caroline Wynn makes the even more shocking offer to serve as judge. The trio all harbor complex secrets of their own, and as they discreetly begin the judging process far away from the keen eyes of society gossips, more than the lady's reputation and the gentlemen's pride are at risk from their growing passions. Balancing deliciously erotic encounters with compelling romantic tension and populating a convincing historical setting with a strong cast of well-developed characters, prolific romance author Wildes (A Devil's Bargain) provides a spectacular and skillfully handled story that stands head and shoulders above the average historical romance.
