The plot is simple. Lord Gaventry has come to Bath to find, woo, perhaps ruin, and definately break the heart of the authoress who based her novel, A Rogue's Tale, on his life...the main character is Lord Daventry, for goodness' sake, and the book reads like his diary. Unfortunately, the book has made him look like a misunderstood, tragic, ROMANTIC, hero and women are throwing themselves at him right and left. Gaventry enjoyed his privacy and his bachelorhood, thank you, and he would have his revenge on the woman who dared to pry into his personal affairs.Aurelia Kittling was going to feel a Rogue's Revenge. Sarah Kittling is having a severe attack of conscience. How did she have the nerve to base her novel so obviously on the exploits of a real man? And the sequel, A Rogue's Revenge, is due out soon. If Lord Gaventry should ever learn her identity, there would be the devil to pay, she was sure. And her explanation that she desperately needed money to keep herself, her two sisters, and her cousin, housed and fed would hardly placate a wicked rogue like Gaventry. Luckily, her publisher had sworn to keep her identity a secret... and she had given him her sister's name besides.When Gaventry and Sarah meet, sparks fly. But Gaventry seems to prefer Sarah's sister, Aurelia. Sarah soon realizes that Gaventry is out for revenge. How dare he trifle with her sister's affections. Perhaps Sarah could serve up some revege of her own...Okay, this book was unrealistic, really, but it was fun and it sizzled. I loved the dialogue between Sarah and Gaventry. I would recommend this book to anyone who liked Courting Trouble by Nonnie St. George. They are both unique, spirited romps through Regency England.
