Theresa Weller, Tess, es un ejemplo a seguir entre las damas de la alta sociedad londinense. Su comportamiento es siempre exquisito y refi nado, hasta que conoce a Bartholomew James, Tolly, un hombre rudo e insensible que encarna todo lo que un caballero no debería ser. Ella siempre se ha mantenido alejada de cualquier persona que no tuviera una reputación intachable, pero tras un único y ardiente beso, no puede quitarse de la cabeza a ese vividor. Por su parte, Tolly queda tan impresionado con Theresa que se esforzará por seguir las reglas de la buena educación para conquistarla, pues es consciente de que detrás de ese aparente recato se esconde una mujer capaz de despertar sus deseos más profundos. 1 Wounded Hero with a Badly Healing Leg 1 Anonymous Author of an Etiquette Guide Heroine 1 Secret Sequel Bait Club Dancing and Charm as Social Weaponry Several Improper Situations 1 Unconventional Butler with a Sweet Tooth 1 Cat-Crazed Grandmama (Battle-Axe Variety) 1 Childhood Trauma 1 Horrific Thuggee Ambush 1 Forced Encounter with Wellington 1 Kidnapping 1 Reputation-Saving Editorial I’ve come to associate Ms Enoch’s historical romances with appalling historical goofs. The moment she introduced the Indian Thuggee motif in this story, I braced myself for the inevitable disaster. It wasn’t long coming. I’m left wondering why. A quick glance at the relevant Wikipedia article would have averted the catastrophe. Thuggees attacking a troop of British soldiers? Thuggees using swords and guns? Early 19th century aristocrats eating brunch? Ships sailing from Northampton? For a reliable fictional account of the Thuggees, John Master’s [b:The Deceivers|400011|The Deceivers|John Masters|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1317141727s/400011.jpg|389445] remains unsurpassed.

Theresa Weller understands the rules of decorum, and is appalled when Colonel Bartholomew James disrupts a perfectly civilized dinner. This rude, insensitive man is the complete opposite of everything a gentleman should be--but with one searing kiss, Tess can think of no one else. . . . Aggravated beyond bearing by a man who speaks his mind, Tess wishes there was a guide to men like Bartholomew. Surely, with such an assortment of handsome, polite suitors to choose from, Tess should not ache for him. . . . She invites him on carriage rides and dares him to dance, and almost makes him want to return to Society. Bartholomew knows Tess wants to be seen as a proper miss, but deep down, he knows she is precisely the sort to spark his desire . . . A most improper lady.
