bad barons daughter, a wonderful evening read

if you can get hod of a copy of this book garb it and don't let it go! wonderful story, absolutely hilarious moments and a great happy ending. i have had this book for years and it is on my do not loan under any cicumstances list.

Yummy hero, wonderful characters

(Note, the last review for this book seems to be for the Gypsy Heiress, also a great book) I bought this book because I thought the title was ridiculous and I'm very glad I did. It was the first Laura London (Tom and Sharon Curtis) I've read. The heroine, naive but not stupid, finds herself alone in the world since her father, the Bad Baron, is off running away from creditors and angry husbands. She ends up in the custody of Lord Lyndon, who, to his own surprize finds himself protecting her rather than doing what a rake ought to do with a young vulnerable thing. But it's not the plot (tried and true, but still fun) that makes this book (and most of the Curtis' books) fly, it's the unexpected treasures: the heroine's response to Lyndon's attempt at seduction, the various interesting places he finds to stash her (with his former mistress for one). If you like regencies, you have to find a copy of this one.

Werewolves, and gypies, and earls -- oh my!

Eliza has spent all of her short life with her gypsy grandmother. Now her grandmother is dead, but Eliza has been discovered by Lord Brockhaven, who claims she is the heiress of a marquess - and his ward. She makes friends with a distant relative of the earl's. Together, they decide to track down the werewolf plauging the district. As if her enforced change in lifestyle weren't enough, Eliza finds herself irrisistibly attracted to her guardian... As usual, Sharon & Tom Curtis(writing as Laura London)present us with entire cast of entertaining characters.
