Book Description

10 Dec 2003 0312987633 978-0312987633
After a lengthy journey, Seraphina Treadwell appears at the doorstep of Carden Reeves with his three young nieces in tow determined to ensure their uncle will properly care for her charges. However, judging by the man's rakish smile and dancing eyes--now alight with the fire of a new conquest--that day seems far off indeed.
A make who can make love and walk away with equal amounts of passion, Carden plays the seduction game to win. But beneath a rogue's clothing beats the heart of a man who has never been truly and properly seduced by a woman, let alone a woman who lives by her own rules and who could make him believe in love. Until now...
While pride will not allow Seraphina to surrender to a man who has never wanted anything beyond a single night, her heart will not be denied the sweet promise of love...

About the Author

Leslie Lafoy grew up loving to read and living to write. (This was a significant factor in her becoming the unofficial poster child of over-education. In the Liberal Arts no less.) After teaching high school history for many years, she focused her creative energies on her life-long dream of writing full time. When not made completely oblivious to reality by her current work in progress, she dabbles in every handicraft known to womankind and, twice a week and every other weekend, dons her cape to be Hockey Team Mom.

2.0 out of 5 stars Overwritten 2 Sep 2004
By Karen Mercury - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book was such an effort to read! I couldn't put my finger on it till halfway through but...Every single line of dialogue "has" to be accompanied by an in-depth internal analysis of what each person's thinking!

It's as though one person says, "Hello, Sera." Then: He wasn't sure about his feelings for her. He recalled back in the War when he was wounded, and it brought up huge emotions... And that'll go on and on before Sera says,

"Hello, Tom." (or whatever his name was.) Then SHE has to internally analyze: She could tell he'd been sweating, and smelled like fireplace smoke but not of the hardwood that he used in his estate--no, she could tell it was a hardwood only found on the coast near Brighton, which of course meant he had a mistress...

And on and on. It takes like 4 pages for a conversation to really take off. Everyone's always assuming things they couldn't possibly have known unless they were psychic.

Just too annoying to finish.

4.0 out of 5 stars What a treat! 18 May 2006
By VA Girl - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
It's always a treat to pick up a book by an author you're not familiar with and realizing by the third page that they've just become one of your favorites. LaFoy had me when the heroine refused to be ripped off by a client she did a drawing for (if you read this book I'm sure you'll mentally applaud like I did). Most heroines would just swallow their pride and accept whatever she got because "it's for the children", but not this one. She stayed strong throughout the whole book and never made any of the stupid mistakes most headstrong heroines do that makes you roll your eyes at their idiocy. She stood up for herself and it was refreshing. Oh, and the hero wasn't too shabby himself. My one complaint is that the ending was a little too easily wrapped up.

4.0 out of 5 stars solid historical romance 26 Nov 2003
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
In Belize City, a colony overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, artist Seraphina Treadwell watches three preadolescent sisters Amanda, Beatrice, and Camille. The parents of the young girls and her husband journey into the nearby jungle in search of the ruins of ancient civilizations. Six months pass without a word from the three travelers when word arrives that the missing father's brother has become an earl.

Three months later, Seraphina and her three charges arrive at the London townhouse of their uncle Carden Reeves. The aristocrat wants nothing to do with his nieces because he now that he is the earl he enjoys his hedonist lifestyle and doesn't want children to change that. Carden persuades the impoverished Seraphina to watch his half-brother's litter so that the trio does not interrupt his activities. However, soon he falls in love with the four female intruders. They reciprocate, but her allegedly deceased husband shows up ready to cause trouble if it means filling his pockets.

Historical romance readers will welcome this warm tale of a self-indulgent individual falling in love with the four female invaders. The story line entertains the troops as Seraphina takes Carden to task for his lack of commitment towards the welfare of his nieces. Though a suspense spin caused by her husband takes a little away from the strength of a powerful relationship drama, sub-genre fans will enjoy this tale and look forward to future stories starring Carden's pals finding responsibility worth living for.
