They say he's a shameless rake who cares for nothing but pleasure, a rogue who spends his nights in London's lustiest locales, gambling and carousing until dawn. But Lady Hermione Marlowe refuses to believe that the handsome gentleman she's loved from afar for so long could be so wicked. If only she had a way to prove to the ton that Lord Rockhurst is as proper as the rest. If only she knew what he really did under cover of the night . . .
Lord Rockhurst knows what they say about him, and he doesn't care. Only he knows his true purpose, his dangerous mission. But when a mysterious woman falls into his arms—and thereby saves his life—Rockhurst will struggle to save his secret. Who is this creature with such tempting curves and an enticing touch? Rockhurst can only wonder how he can trust her . . . for he knows he cannot resist her.

Starred review from September 15, 2008
Hermione Marlowe doesnt care what the rest of the ton says; she knows the Earl of Rockhurst is no wicked rake. Hermione knows that Rockhurst doesnt spend his nights in search of scandalous pleasures, but the only way she can prove that would be if she could actually follow him. Of course, that was an absurd plan, since Rockhurst would immediately spot her, unless Hermione were to somehow be invisible to him.Hermione knows that wishing for such a thing is just foolish, unless one just accidentally happens to havea very special ring, that, unbeknownst to its owners, is in the business of granting wishes.The second in RITA award-winner Boyles magic-infused Regency historical series, followingHis Mistress by Morning(2006), will enchant readers with its wonderfully witty mix of uniquely entertaining characters, cleverly constructed plot, and delectably sexy romance.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2008, American Library Association.)
