A must read for "Seducer Series" fans...

Rounding up from 4.5. I remember reading The Romantic and thinking "it's so obvious that Charlotte and Nathaniel sparks underlie an attraction"- I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered this was a seducer spin off. Lady of Sin was exactly what I thought the story would look like. I especially enjoyed the peak into Dante and Fleur's life. Madeline Hunter's characters in this series were highly intelligent, unique for their times and a joy to read about.

Her best so far! Steamy, passionate and so cleaver. Loved it!

Loved it! Very sensual, passionate romance with great sparks. One of my favorite M. Hunter books so far. (I've read about half of them.) I love her writing style. Her books really make me feel like I am there with her characters. She writes such vivid details about the era and surroundings, but never so much that it over powers the story. She does a wonderful job building the passion and a deep relationship between hero and heroine too. Highly recommend to any historical romance fan.

Lady of Sin

all Madeline Hunters books are good- Lady of Sin is the best of all- !

Another hot book from Madeline Hunter

I read this book in a single night - shouldn't have started it after I got home from work because I didn't finish it til about 2:00 a.m.! The story was wonderful, the characters are wonderful, I enjoyed it immensely. A well-written, intriguing story is so satisfying to a romance junkie like me. I highly recommend all of Ms. Hunter's books but I thought this one was especially good. I look forward to her next book, due out late 2006.

terrific Regency romantic suspense

Lord Nathaniel Knightsbridge is the only aristocrat who practices criminal law. After losing a tough case, Ambrose's father visits him to obtain his son's pledge to prosecute criminal John Finley for blackmailing Lord James Mardenford, brother-in-law to widow Charlotte. Before the trial, Nathaniel visits John who says he was not blackmailing his lordship, but instead wanted to help him connect with his son, working the streets. Not long afterward John apparently commits suicide; as Nathaniel leaves he notices some youngsters nearby with one looking like he is a Mardenford. He visits Charlotte and mentions the kid; she scorns his efforts as ghoulish, but agrees to meet with the child. She is stunned when she sees the kid who though she denies it, he is clearly a Mardenford. As Nathaniel and Charlotte begin seeing one another especially since he supports her efforts to change the laws of marriage and divorce, they fall in love, which angers James who has plans for Charlotte. Meanwhile as they work together on trying to learn more about the street urchin, she has a secret that she hides from Nathaniel: that they have already made love at Lord Lyndale's last masquerade party. Madeline Hunter's latest sinful tale (see LORD OF SIN) is a terrific Regency romantic suspense starring two likable caring protagonists. Readers will wonder who the ten year old boy is as he looks like a Mardenford offspring yet James denies the kid is his; several twists later will reveal a fascinating truth. Ms. Hunter has written another fun historical that grips the audience from the moment Finley speaks out and never slows down until the final clearing of the air. Harriet Klausner
