Publisher Description
Dear Reader,
You met Alec Carrick in Night Fire. He returns full force-and believe me, this man's got force--in Night Storm, the third novel of the Night Trilogy which I wrote in the Fall of 1988.
The Paxtons are shipbuilders in Baltimore. Alec Carrick is an English nobleman who wants to buy them out. Genny Paxton isn't at all what she seems. She dresses like "Eugene" and wants to build her own sailing ships without male interference. Alec, a man of great insight, knows exactly what lies beneath those britches. He gets Genny's goat more times than she can count.
This is a love story filled with wit, humor, and outrageous circumstance. It's got more unexpected spins than a roulette wheel. Then there's five-year-old Hallie, Alec's daughter, a charmer who will take hold of your heart and never let go.
Do enjoy Alec and Genny--and let me know which of the novels in the Night Trilogy you like best.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this final installment of the Night trilogy, Coulter once again shows her knack for creating dynamic, likable lovers and engineering outrageous erotic situations. At the heart of a romance between an English lord and the daughter of a shipyard owner in 19th-century Baltimore is a psychodrama in which a young, androgynous woman with conventionally male responsibilities confronts her feminine identity. Coulter's conceit is that an independent woman will surrender to an attractive, domineering male so long as he arouses her passion with eroticism and not brutishness. The result is a lengthy paean to the pleasures of voyeurism, light bondage, cross-dressing and other variant sexual practices--performed, that is, with Mr. Right. Coulter will titillate like-minded readers.
Customer Reviews
Night storms
Captivating, hard to put down, realistic in its time period.
Night Watch
Took an important topic and handled it in a trashy way. All the "love" scenes were repetitive. This was not "romance", it was just garbage.
Night Storm
Dreadful! Alec was portrayed as an over-sexed male chauvinist. Not at all a book I would recommend. If I could give it less than one star, I would. Sorry. I usually like her books.
