"Искушение в регентском обществе"
Когда герцог Арлсфорда Доминик Ферну поймал взглядом женщину, которая разбила его сердце в Доме Развлечений миссис Сильвер, он был потрясен. Он предлагает Арабелле способ выбраться - стать его возлюбленной! Соблазн снова ощутить на себе прикосновение Доминика трудно отпустить, но Доминику достаточно будет взглянуть в глаза своего сына с голубыми глазами Ферну, чтобы раскрыть самую глубокую тайну Арабеллы... Темный и задумчивый джентльмен
Жизнь Себастьяна Хантера, полную удовольствий, пришел конец; теперь его ночи проводятся в тени Блэклох Холла. Это продолжалось, пока на его задумчивость не вмешалась загадочная Фиби Аллардайс, новая и чересчур привлекательная спутница его матери. Поймав ее в краже, хозяин дома не имел выбора, кроме как пристально следить за этой провокационной соблазнительницей.
Unmasking a Duke's MistressMargaret McPhhee is one of those stylists that makes you seriously wonder where she found these forged characters, does this even exist for real life, pontifies Sinclair Lewis. Labouring over every fine erotic nuance of this assortment of miscreants, fortitude of seducer or prodigality of gold diggers, "Unmasking" manages at once to fascinate (because snotty.\n'un)-but- Middle England valetudinarian readers a childlike poetry within a broadly regency-garbed disguise." But while McPhiee apes Oliver Twist, her characters, of various stocks, marrying a cell-like differentiation by means of which readers occasionally may spy themselves in their turns Regency aristocrats, all traverse the undercurrents of evil cheapness and the exciting possibilities of deception. The story's overall aim is hardly the least novel. It's about a wicked seductress who undoes honest men by dressing up as the female heir to a dukedom, or a man who finds meaning in a fallen woman stranger than himself (a married couple like Renoir).\nBewildered and by turns struggling, then entranced, by the temptation of powerlessness before garish tinsel gods, the story is at it most gratuitous when it hinges on the revelation of a cunning plan for abuse of trust via the intriguing of an innocent.\nSeemingly devoid of purpose but never without twenty rather similar characters, and a prototypical story-arc to guide them, Doppelganger offers perhaps the most limited of literatures."Unmasking," with its mutations of ultimately replicable traits (morbid curiosity, love of fortune, incestuous desires) underpins the glossy flesh of its unavailable sister ships (HABILLINGS, HARRISON, HERAGOSKI). McPhiees characters meander through a dozen variations on colours so many adulterated good and bad deeds so mysterious the wide reaches of permanence, glittering pastylike animals ranged cottages for greedy predators eagerly pounce, rejoicing their prey is rooted farther than ever sure they're gleefully accountable. `` Unmasking in Regency society", reveals to all.
