Publisher Description
Once again Nicole Jordan thrills and enchants with this fabulously seductive Regency romance, the next installment in the Paradise series.
She is the woman of his dreams . . .
and he will pay any price to possess her.
From the moment he met the lovely Lady Eve, soldier of fortune Alex Ryder set his sights on winning the spirited beauty. But fate intervened, making Eve another man’s wife then a widow. Now, despite Eve’s ardent vow never to marry again, Ryder aims to use every seductive weapon in his arsenal to woo her.
A renowned matchmaker for the ton, Eve defies Ryder’s wicked allure but cannot resist his challenge to find him a suitable bride–never dreaming that she is the only woman he will ever desire for his bride, or that his breathtaking sensuality will awaken her to soul-searing passion.
But as their delicious mating dance begins, an assailant threatens Eve’s life. Now Ryder must protect Eve while striving to convince his beloved that he alone is her perfect match in the tantalizing game of love.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In the fourth book of her Paradise series, Jordan backgrounds the series' mythology, which centers on a secret band of noble warriors called the Guardians of the Sword and its attendant subplots, leaving a generic man-at-arms/damsel-in-distress story in its place. Guardian Alex Ryder has carried a torch for the lovely Lady Eve Seymour since before he was a knight and before Lady Eve was a Seymour. Newly widowed of her wealthy, selfish husband, Eve fears men and intimacy, but her sister, Claire Montlow, concocts a plan to help Alex win Eve's love. Asking Eve to play matchmaker for Alex, Claire knows that Eve will be forced to confront her love for him. It doesn't hurt Alex's case that somebody is intent on killing Eve, allowing him to flex his Guardian skills protecting her. Readers who enjoy heroes in pursuit may enjoy this one, but the backstory makes this a weak series entry. Eve can frustrate with her refusal to recognize Alex's obvious overtures, but Jordan's prose still waxes purple in plentiful love scenes.

Fever Dreams
Loved this book the romance, adventure I read the series the only thing lacking in each was an update on the previous characters since each book Leads to the next ;there was a little here and there. Loved that Eve was expecting I wish it would have ended with her having baby or babies, also not much on Caro wish she had been there for the rescue although she was expecting as well in the book before this one. I enjoyed the series as I have other Jordan series leaves me wanting more which is a good sign.
