A new take on the Regency story… a guardian angel/redemption sort. The incorrigible womanizing rake’s actions lead to his own death and the death of the man he was dueling and thus starts in motion a 100 year downward spiral to the two families involved. The Caines who owe the actions of one Valerian Caine to their credit (or discredit really) leaving 100 years later Robin (the current lord and sadly downtrodden young man) and Dorathea (the maiden) and the Sevarics, the Lord Max and his sister Gwendolyn.

 Written by Alicia Rasley and Lynn Kerstan, this is a more mature regency romance with a more frank dealing with the ideas of the rake and his urges. Not that the rather elegant Valerian (brought back to earth as Vayle) gave into his, but the temptation… the temptation is there. I think this story gives you a better idea than most as to how the men of the regency era often kept busy as well as a peek into life 100 years before. Definitely worth a read if you like some paranormal with your complicated romance! Come enjoy the poetic justice.
