#1 Bestselling Author in Regency Romance!
One morning, along the wild Dorset coast, Sir Bertie is bewitched by Lady Catherine Redmayne. Smugglers intervene, and soon her life is in danger. Of course, Bertie feels compelled to protect her, but initially, Catherine believes him to be the menace. It doesn’t help that she is heartbroken and the subject of a scandal.
First, Bertie must convince Catherine of his innocence, then uncover the real threat. Will she yield her injured heart to him? Several forces are at work to separate them, and, after all, he is only an ordinary baronet and she is a marquess’s daughter.

My Review: 4 Stars
Poor Catherine. She's the victim of a rather tragic heartbreak and finds herself in a dangerous situation, with Sir Bertie to the rescue. In a series of mysteries, mistaken ideas, and a swirl of menace, this charming story reveals true intents of the heart. This is a fun Regency romance.
The smugglers and the threat associated with them really added a fun dimension to the story. I'm a chicken, but Catherine didn't seem to realize how serious the danger really was, which made for some entertaining situations and discussions. I love Bertie, even though he made me want to scream a few times. He's frustratingly lovable.
The conclusion was very satisfying and the cast of characters enjoyable. Be sure to pick this one up if you like this type of book.
Content: mild romance
