Product Description

From the Author

Whee! It's finally out!
I'm so happy to finally be able to share THE BLACK ANGEL with readers. I had a blast writing this book, and even made a research trip to England and Ireland to better understand it. (Well, okay, I wanted to go to the UK and this book was a good excuse.) It's zesty and passionate and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
This is also the beginning of a family series....look for Cassandra's story next summer.

BACK COVER COPY

A Taste of Heaven
Ardor once foolishly led Lady Adriana St. Ives into the arms of a rake, an affair that cost her everything she held dear. Though that was five years ago, this golden English beauty still vows that no man will ever again ignite the sensual passion hidden deep in her soul--not even her new husband, Tynan Spenser, Earl of Glencove, a darkly handsome and rich Irish rogue.

Known as the "Black Angel" for his wild and notorious past, Tynan is as determined to melt his icy bride as she is to resist his seductive charms. Vowing that she will be his in just one hundred kisses, Tynan sets out to win her with a kiss each day--a challenge Riana is sure she can withstand. But the willful beauty has no idea of the power of a single kiss...

"Barbara Samuel is a sorceress, wielding her pen like a magic wand." --Romance and Women's Fiction Exchange

"A dazzling, sensual tapestry...Barbara Samuel proves once again that she is one of the most gifted romance writers." --Mary Jo Putney

FROM EARLY REVIEWS:
"There's plenty of underlying, potent sexuality and intense emotions in the Black Angel. Ms. Samuel skillfully draws the reader into the story. Her indelible characters and powerful plot are enhanced by the well drawn backdrop and hint of suspense. This is a must read for anyone craving a hard to put down, moving romance." --Romantic Times

"The Black Angel is one of the very best historical romances I have read this year. I do not hesitate to recommend it to any and all. It is a superb book - simply superb." --Ellen D. Micheletti, All About Books

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read, 19 April 2011
By romance fan
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I originally bought this book for the price but enjoyed it so much and am now reading book 2 in the St Ives series. I thought it a great read and loved the characters and history given to the family members and how the 2 main characters grow. The backgroud story for this book was also interesting an it made a change to read of Ireland political background.
I realise this is an old book written back in the late 90's along with the 2nd book but I hope Barbara Samuel will go back and write more books to tell the stories of the other family members.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Warm and Feel Good Story. 22 Sep 2011
By herepiggypiggy
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having previously read two titles by Barbara Samuel, 'A Winter Ballad' and then one of my favourite books 'Lucien's Fall', I had very VERY high expectations of 'The Black Angel' and I was definately not disappointed! The story of Tynan Spenser, Earl of Glencove and the friendship and love that grows with Adriana St. Ives is told with such warmth and feeling. I was so wrapped up in their love story that the hours literally slipped by - up early to finish it and oops late for work! I don't want to spoil the indepth parts of the book (and there are many to discover) because I feel you need to unwrap them for yourself as you glide through the pages. I can't recommend this book enough, such a pleasure to read and it could so easily have been missed amongst all the books Amazon have on offer..... I loved every word....

4.0 out of 5 stars GOOD LITERARY READ 19 Feb 2012
By Carol 'avid little bookworm' TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Although I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it I can't say I loved it as much a Lucien's Fall which had me hooked from start to finish and was the reason I purchased this book, this I've also reviewed (see all my reviews).

The writing was excellent and I warmed to all the main characters. The author built the characters up throughout the novel not just Adriana and Tynan the two main characters but also a number of other family members, which I really enjoyed.

The book was quite long so I didn't think it needed to be any longer but after building the story throughout, the end was sudden - I had no idea I was reading the last chapter when I got to it - and I was left feeling I wanted to know more of what happened to Adriana and Tynan. This is the first in the series so maybe we get to know more in the next book/s, I hope so.
