Synopsis

She spied him in the shadows . . .

And in an instant, Thalia Langley knew the man before her was no saint. He might claim to be the Duke of Hollindrake's unassuming country cousin, but no man that handsome, that arresting, could be anything but . . . well, he simply must be an unrepentant rogue. His cat-like grace and power leave Tally shivering in her slippers at the notion of all the wicked, forbidden things he might be capable of doing . . . to her.

Indeed, Lord Larken is no bumbling vicar, but a master spy there in his majesty's service to find—and murder—a notorious pirate freed in a daring prison escape. Devoted to the Crown, Larken's not about to let an interfering (and not entirely innocent) Mayfair miss disrupt his ruthless plans. Yet how can he be anything but tempted by this lady in a little black gown . . . a dress tantalizing enough to lead even Larken astray.

From Booklist:

Boyle continues her Bachelor Chronicles. Thalia “Tally” Langley just knew her sister Felicity’s house party—otherwise known as “Felicity’s Infernal Folly”—was going to be a catastrophe. Before the party even begins, another woman’s trunk of clothes is mistakenly delivered in place of Tally’s luggage. Then any hopes Tally might have of finding her very own man of mystery are dashed once their first guest—her brother-in-law’s deadly dull vicar cousin Milo Ryder—arrives. But everything isn’t a total disaster. Tally discovers a gorgeous, scandalously sexy black gown in the trunk, and there are hints that Milo might not be a complete bumbling bore. All of Boyle’s signature elements—high wit, delightfully original characters, and a wildly creative plot spiced with deception and desire—blend together brilliantly. The series continues with Memoirs of a Scandalous Red Dress (2009), reviewed below. --John Charles
