Product Description

Product Description
A secret agent in His Majesty's service, Jason Kitterage is much in need of diversion - and a solitary stroll through the shadowy, perfumed lanes of Vauxhall provides it. Quite by chance he meets Miss Angelica Pruitt, a young beauty who is less than forthright about her reasons for being there. Her sensual charm intrigues him but she cannot be a mere file de jole - her elegance and impeccable manners mark her as a lady. Yet Angelica is alone...Angelica well believes that the darkly handsome baronet could win the heart of any woman with just one smouldering glance, for he has captured hers. An amorous dalliance on such short acquaintance would be most improper...and impossible to resist...

5.0 out of 5 stars Regency with magical tones., 21 Mar 2005
By Detra Fitch (USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This story is set in the Regency era. Angelica "Angel" Pruitt is the daughter of a famous orator. He died only a few years before. Angelica teaches Cicely history and literature so she can speak with her "protector", Lord Geoffrey, about his interests of Greek mythology.

Angelica accepts Cicely's offer to a party in Vauxhall's pleasure garden for the sole reason of a meal. It is at this party that Angel meets Jason Kitterage. The attraction between them is mutual. Refusing to lower her standards though, she quits the party early. While doing so, Jason is hurt and has no choice but to care for him for a few days.

Jason is an antiquities collector and seller. He is offering an ancient treasure, called the Mask of Aphrodite, up for bid to others that had attended the previous party. Once well enough, he convinces Angel to stay with him and his father. He vows not to press his attentions on her. She sets the pace.

The Mask of Aphrodite is surrounded by legends. It is said that any woman who wears the mask becomes irresistible to all men and can enslave them to do her bidding. Problem is that the legends are true. Angel and Jason must keep the mask out of the wrong hands.

***** No hot love scenes here. This is a clean and sweet regency romance. However, there is danger and magic throughout the tale. This book proves that you do not need hot bedroom scenes in order to have a marvelous story. Jason's father and brother are secondary characters in this book and their personalities light up the pages just as brightly as the main characters' do. In fact, I have high hopes that the brother will get his own magical story soon! Author Regan Allen proves herself to be an enchantress in this gem. I was enthralled quickly and left begging for more. Highly recommended! *****
