From Publishers Weekly

As in Quick's Surrender , the crux of this new Regency is one night's indiscretion, a ruined reputation and a hurried wedding. But despite the title, this is no rape-'em-and-romance-'em. Harriet Pomeroy, the woman in question, is--at the grand old age of 25--perfectly capable of handling herself. In fact, she's more concerned with the reputation of her outsize fiance, Gideon Westbrook, aka the Viscount St. Justin, aka The Beast of Blackthorne Hall, who supposedly abandoned another woman after bedding her. After her unconventional engagement, Harriet, her sister and aunt leave the backwater of Upper Biddleton in search of polite polish during London's season while adventure and, inevitably, love tag along. An avid antiquities nerd with a decided predilection for moldy teeth, Harriet is a cheery, intensely likable character, one well matched by the battered and beleaguered Gideon. Although more romance than Regency--a few articles of clothing and a liberal sprinkling of the word ton suffice for atmosphere--genre aficionados will find this a spiffy read.

Product Description

From the cozy confines of a tiny seaside village to the glittering crush of the a fashionable London soiree comes an enthralling tale of a thoroughly mismatched couple . . . poised to discover the rapture of love.

There was no doubt about it. What Miss Harriet Pomeroy needed was a man. Someone powerful and clever who could help her rout the unscrupulous thieves who were using her beloved caves to hide their loot. But when Harriet summoned Gideon Westbrook, Viscount St. Justin, to her aid, she could not know that she was summoning the devil himself. . . .

Dubbed the Beast of Blackthorne Hall for his scarred face and lecherous past, Gideon was strong and fierce and notoriously menacing. Yet Harriet could not find it in her heart to fear him. For in his tawny gaze she sensed a savage pain she longed to soothe . . . and a searing passion she yearned to answer. Now, caught up in the Beast’s clutches, Harriet must find a way to win his heart–and evade the deadly trap of a scheming villain who would see them parted for all time. --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.

4.0étoiles sur 5 OK, Jui 7 2004
This review is from: Ravished (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a cute regency novel.
My first time reading this author.

I give it four stars because this book strays
from the typical regency and is exciting -
better than the the norm, for this era.

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Ravished (Mass Market Paperback)
"Ravished" is a smooth novel flowing with intrigue and perception. Instantly, Amanda Quick entangles her reader with spellbinding ease, blending romance with a subtle cloak-and-dagger feeling.

In Upper Biddleton, Miss Harriet Pomeroy fills her days with devotion. Harriet Pomeroy has an insatiable passion for fossils. She spends her time digging, collecting, and researching old bones. All is well, until Harriet discovers sinister events taking place in her fossil caves - found beneath the estate belonging to the Viscount St. Justin. Immediately, she summons the viscount.

The audacity of Miss Pomeroy's commanding note fascinates Gideon Westbrook, the Viscount St. Justin. Following a six-year absence, Gideon returns to Upper Biddleton.

Harriet Pomeroy is an insightful heroine gushing with innocent boldness. Gideon Westbrook glides through the pages as a gruff hero radiating honor and dignity. However, it is the humor the author employs which successfully ties the entire story together.

This is smooth reading with a pleasant romance involved; however, the story has limitations. Personally, I enjoy a little more quiet lust before the actual grand event takes place and regrettably, the unending fossil theme grows tiresome. Nevertheless, the author has reached her goal with a charming book.

Grace Atkinson, Ontario - Canada.

-- Historical fact: In June of 1824, teeth found in Sussex, England, by the wife of amateur palaeontologist Gideon Mantell were examined at the Hunterian Museum in London. The famous anatomist Georges Cuvier concluded that they were the teeth of an extinct herbivorous reptile. --

Did the author, Amanda Quick, purposely use "Gideon" for her hero's first name? A nice touch.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Pornography in the guise of historical romance, Juil 21 2003
Par Un client
This review is from: Ravished (Mass Market Paperback)
This book should have a warning label - something like "Adults Only" or "Rated X". If you're looking for explicit sex scenes then this is a book for you. If you're looking for character development and a fun historical read without the porn I recommend romances by Carla Kelly, Cindy Holbrook or Judith Landsdowne.
