Tempt Me at Twilight

August 1, 2009
Poppy Hathaways sister Beatrixs ferret steals a love letter written to Poppy by Michael Bayning, which could ruin everything. Of course, with Poppys luck, she, the ferret, and her love letter are all found by Harry Rutledge, the mysterious owner of the hotel where Poppy and her family are staying for the season. As one of Londons most successful and wealthiest businessmen, Harry had met dozens of beautiful women, but none of them have captivated him quite like this unconventional lady chasing a ferret around his hotel. Once Harry realizes Poppy is the only woman for him, he sets about removing whatever obstacles might be in the way of marrying her, including Michael, his current rival for her affections. Brimming with superbly nuanced characters, simmering sexual chemistry, and wicked wit, the latest in Kleypas Victorian-set Hathaway series is a thoroughly romantic literary treat.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
