Book Description
Bestselling author Andrea Kane deftly interweaves her sensual love stories with breathtaking intrigue -- a touch of danger amid glorious romance. Affaire de Coeur says, "Andrea Kane's talent knows no bounds," and now she brings readers an enchanting tale of a rogue with a heart of gold and a desire for one very precious jewel of a woman.
Lady Daphne Wyndham is the only child of the brutal Marquis of Tragmore. Risking a beating each time she sneaks away to help the local vicar, Daphne fantasizes about the legendary Tin Cup Bandit, who robs the rich to aid the poor. His scandalous exploits inflame her rebellious spirit and fire her romantic imagination. And when he appears in her bedroom, she suspects all her wild dreams may come true....
Pierce Thornton grew up in a British workhouse, and now thirsts for vengeance against the nobility -- and the Marquis of Tragmore. As he plots to ruin Tragmore, a twist of fate opens an unexpected door, allowing him to fulfill his life-long crusade: bringing the fashionable world to its knees. But in the process he encounters a far greater peril...losing his heart to Daphne Wyndham.
Ingram
Trying to avoid an unhappy life at the hands of her brutal marquis father, Lady Daphne Wyndham fantasizes about the infamous Tin Cup Bandit and finds her dreams coming true when he suddenly appears in her bedroom.

Sorry to say I was disappointed...,
By JustMissy (NH - USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Last Duke (Mass Market Paperback)
There isn't anything worse than a bad book. I had a hard time even getting half way thru this book! I never finished it. I really did not like it. I thought the characters where boring, the romance was tacky. I hate bad reviews because that means I just read a lame book. Sorry :(

A terrific book with memorable characters.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Last Duke (Mass Market Paperback)
Andrea Kane has a wonderful wonderful way of revealing
everyone's secrets, combining emotion and laughter in just
the right proportions. _The Last Duke_, though I think Kane
has written better books, is no exception. Pierce Thornton
is a compassionate man and finds the perfect match in Daphne
Wyndham. A wonderful read.

One of my favorite Kane books!,
By Elizabethann - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Last Duke (Mass Market Paperback)
This has to be one of my all-time favorite Kane books. I loved how Pierce rescued Daphne from her abusive father, and then she returned the favor by healing him with her love. It was fantastic! I have read this book at least 20 times, and it still gets better every time!

Refreshing read,
By T. L. Smoot "Victorianprincess" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Last Duke (Mass Market Paperback)
Daphne and Pierce's story is different from most romances because there wasn't the usual misunderstandings and cat and mouse game. In this book the obstacle wasn't these two falling in love, but with Pierce's past and his present. Although the book was a tad bit predictable in certain areas I thought it was refreshing to read a story where the whole novel wasn't about the "chase."
