I read this book when it was first issued in 1987 and besides Gone With The Wind, it is THE book I have read again more than any other. I still have my original copy and it is tattered to pieces. This book has it all in under 300 pages! It captures your heart and takes it on a wild emotional ride; it simply evokes your deepest stirrings. But really, with Maggie Davis as the author, this reaching into the deepest part of the human heart is her signature art! Be prepared, ladies, because "Beau Devil" will steal your heart; from his rough charm to his heroic "Lord of the Alligators." I can't tell you how many times I have wished that I was Rachel Brinton. She is Beau's perfect match and foil, and it's a true pleasure to watch them steer their lives onto the same path. A beautifully sensual story that you will have to read again and again if only to experience the tenderness one more time! This is the romance I recommend as essential to all my friends. It should be considered a contemporary romance classic. I hope you enjoy and cherish this book as much as I do!

Finally found a used copy of this book, and couldn't stop reading it. Having lived in South Carolina previously, it was easy to recall the environment and customs of the "low country" and its inhabitants. The romance between the embittered Beau and the well-intentioned Rachel is wonderfully steamy and sweet. Would be really great if this book were reissued so many others can enjoy such a great story.
CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE READERS WILL LOVE THIS BOOK!

THIS BOOK IS MY PERSONAL ALL-TIME FAVORITE READ. IT WAS SHELVED IN GENERAL FICTION AND THEREFORE THE MAJORITY OF ROMANCE READERS PROBABLY NEVER EVEN NOTICED IT. WHAT A SHAME! THIS BOOK HAS EVERYTHING - A LOVE STORY, SUSPENSE, MYSTERY, ADVENTURE. THE MAIN CHARACTERS ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE LIVED FULL LIVES, HAVE PROBLEMS, AND STRUGGLE. THIS BOOK WOULD ALSO MAKE A WONDERFUL MOVIE. I CANNOT RECOMMEND IT ENOUGH
