First time reading a book from this author. This was a good book, and had some funny parts to it. I like a book I can cry, laugh and can not put down.
I bought this book...twice!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I liked the plot and "flirty" cover so much...I actually bought this book twice. As I'm reading it the second time I'm thinking...this sounds familiar. But once again, it was so entertaining that I just kept reading through to the end. When the end didn't surprise me as much as it should have, I went back to my box of books (we are moving) and yup...there it was! LOL Well, I'm okay buying it twice cause now I can pass a copy along to my friends. :-) It is not super amazing or "deep"...it is just an entertaining romance novel. The characters play off each other well and I enjoyed Nora's personality and her strength. A good quick read for a rainy Saturday afternoon.
A cat-and-mouse read !

When the Cat (notorious burglary/Robin Hood) breaks into the Brandon Wycroft the Earl of Stockport - she kisses him ( & a few other things) and escapes out the window. Brandon spends the rest of the book tracking her down and trying to protector from being hung for stealing. This was a good book - Enjoy! I am also looking forward to Notorious Rake, Innocent Lady (Harlequin Historical), Gentlemen Behaving Badly (Pleasure Emporium) and At the Bride Hunt Ball
Harlequin Historicals Has A New Hot Author!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I read a lot of historicals and I have to say, Harlequin has found a fantastic new author. Ms. Scott's writing is fresh and original, not to mention hot and sassy. I would only hope other authors stand up and take notice of this writer. Ms. Scott is the new voice of historical romance!
