Hopelessly enamored of a married man, publisher Helena Fitzhugh has successfully hidden their affair—until a vicious gossip (the sister-in-law of the man in the equation) lays a trap for the pair that backfires with unintended consequences for everyone concerned. A quick-thinking rescue saves Helena’s reputation but plunges her into a faux marriage with her childhood nemesis, David Hillsborough, Viscount Hastings. When a carriage accident robs Helena of her memory, the story takes an unexpected but ultimately rewarding turn.
VERDICT Characters who rise from the pages, sensuality that takes readers to a delectable, erotic edge, and lush, mesmerizing language give the classic amnesia plot refreshing new life and result in another off-the-charts winner for Thomas. The hero’s “smutty love letter,” The Bride of Larkspear, plays a central role in this romance and is available in its entirety as an ebook. Thomas (Ravishing the Heiress) lives in Austin, TX.
