Product Description:
They proved their bravery fighting for His Majesty's Secret Service and were rewarded with brides of great beauty and breeding. But one member of the Bastion Club has remained a bachelor . . . until now.
"Christian, I need your help. There is no one else I can turn to . . . L."
When Christian Allardyce, 6th Marquess of Dearne, reads those words, his world turns upside down. Lady Letitia Randall is a woman like no other, and the day he left her behind to fight for king and country was the most difficult of his life. He never forgot the feel of her lips against his, but never expects to see her again. Yet now she seeks his help, and Christian knows he will not resist her plea.
Letitia believes that Christian abandoned her when she needed him most, and she hates to call on his aid. But to clear her brother's name, she has sworn to use every weapon at her command, even if it means seducing her ex-lover. Yet all the while, Christian is waging a war of his own—a campaign of pure pleasure and sweet revenge that will take them both beyond the edge of desire.

I love to read and can't get more than 100 pages into the book. So far I don't even remotely like the characters and it is just cumbersome to read.

I picked this up before a weekend when I was finally going to be kid free with my hubbie gone, I thought I'd settle in for a good read. I typically read a book in a little under 12 hours. This one has been sitting in my drawer for over 3 weeks now. Maybe it was the innundation of sex scences and lack of character development. It might also be that Letitia is annoyingly stubborn, completely unrealistic and there was no real emotion other than the "Vaux" temper (which was mentioned OVER and OVER ... Read More

Stephanie Laurens is an intelligent writer who holds your interest while keeping the romance alive. I recommend the complete Bastion Club series.

I am usually a huge Stephanie Laurens fan. However, in this one book, I am not.
The female character is very hard to like. She is made out to be highly rude and obnoxious. The whole "Vaux" mentality to me makes her very unlikable.
Also, the thousands of references to "the Vaux" got really old by about the 12th page. I almost didn't finish the book I was so disappointed.
So, pick up anyone of her other books and you will have a great read. This one, not so much.
Rating: -
As a long-time fan of Stephanie Laurens, I have read all the Bastion Club books out of a sense of loyalty but I'm glad this one is the next to last as the slow pace, one-dimensional characters and obvious plot devices are not consistent with her better writing elsewhere.
Like another reviewer, I thought the sex scenes were way too long and boring. Even more boring were the constant, and I do mean constant, thoughts of the hero and heroine about their willingness or unwillingess to cede ... Read More
