Book Description

May 16 2002 Avon Historical Romance
Why is Lady Sophia looking for a lover?
And
could she seduce the most marriageable man in London?

Lady Sophia Sydney would do anything to ensnare the unattainable Sir Ross Cannon. Her goal -- to ruin his reputation and cause a scandal that would be the talk of all London. So she insinuates herself into his life by gaining his trust and living in his house.

Every morning, her lush presence tempts him beyond all reason...the way she bends over the table to serve him the meals she has prepared...the way her hands oh, so gently -- yet sensuously -- brush against him. Every night, she promises with her eyes -- and her body --that the hours before dawn could be spent in unbridled passion instead of restless sleep -- if only he'd let her share his bed.

She knows he is falling more in love with her each day. But she never counted on falling in love with him. And she never dreamed he might veryrespectably ask for her hand in marriage...

Are you ready to be seduced by New York Times Bestselling Author
Lisa Kleypas
and her most compelling love story yet?

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Against the grit and glamour of London's crime-fighting Bow Street operation, Kleypas weaves an exceptional early-Victorian-era romance that is driven by much more than mere sexual attraction and sizzling loves scenes (of which there are plenty here). Political, social and familial conflicts heat up this story, and not all of the resolutions come easily. Ever since her younger brother died in prison, Sophia Sydney has had one goal in mindto find the magistrate who sent her brother to prison, worm her way into his office and his heart and then destroy him both politically and emotionally. Handsome Ross Cannon, London's most powerful and irreproachable magistrate, is not the hard-hearted devil she had expected, however. Known as the Monk of Bow Street for his celibacy following his wife's death, Ross is fair and forgiving, which Sophia soon learns when she takes up a position as his office clerk and housekeeper. The chemistry between the pair is palpable, but several obstacles stand in the way of their happiness, not the least of which is the shadow of Sophia's brother. With the exception of Sophia, who is given to histrionics, Kleypas's characters are well drawn and refreshingly levelheaded. Even her villain, a famed thieftaker, displays surprising dimensions. Through deft plotting and simple yet stylish prose, Kleypas distinguishes herself as a master of her craft.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sizzling! April 15 2004
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Lady Sophia's lover is the perfect sequel to Someone To Watch Over me! If you enjoy novels with sizzling and steamy love scenes, this is one to read!

Be sure to first read Someone To Watch Over Me and end this trilogy with Worth Any Price. Thoroughly enjoyable!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sir Ross Cannon...Ooooh Baby! Mar 23 2004
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This guy is the epitome of maleness. He is tall, dark, handsome, and seasoned. He is a mysterious, brooding, workaholic who rarely expresses pleasure with anything. The "Monk of Bow Street." Until Sophia shows up, of course.

I love both of these characters. Sir Ross is a total hottie who comes completely unglued in these love scenes. He loses his reserve and control and is a total animal. I love it! And Sophia gets over a past troubling relationship by learning she can trust a man. She makes such a positive influence in his life...it's hard not to love her.

This book is a great prequel to the book about Nick Gentry and his ladylove. Nick is also a great character...

I highly recommend this book. I love Lisa Kleypas' easy writing style and great characters. Do read this keeper!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Splendid Read.
Within these pages, the pampered reader finds only contentment. The novel's cover claims it is "A novel of seduction". The editors should have included the word "love". Read more
