Review:

Becoming the guardian of a young girl is not what Banning Talbot, Marquess of Daventry, wants. But when a friend tricks him into it, he feels he must do his duty-- even though the young girl is almost nineteen. Prudence MacAfee is hardly the sweet child her brother called her, she is untamed and ill mannered-- and thoroughly enchanting. Banning brings her to London and sees that she is properly dressed and trained to enter society. He plans to marry her off as quickly as possible and be done with his duties as guardian. What he doesn't count on is falling in love with the woman nicknamed Angel. Resenting her new guardian for not rescuing her from her crazy step-father sooner, Angel does her best to tease and displease the proper Marquess. At the same time, she manages to charm everyone else with her dazzling beauty and sharp wit. Changing from a country bumpkin into a beautiful lady isn't so bad-- especially when Banning's sister takes Angel under her wing. But even as she finds herself tripping over admirers, it is Banning she wants. Angel has kept a secret from Banning and he wants to know what it is. But Banning is easily distracted from his task by the beguiling Angel. She knows it's only a matter of time before he finds out what she's been hiding from him, and once her secret is out it will change everything between them forever.A delightful romp through merry old England! Kasey Michaels never fails to entertain us! She has an amazing talent for creating realistic and memorable characters! Playfully passionate and wonderfully witty! The Passion of An Angel is Kasey Michaels at her consummate best! Regency fans will cheer the newest offering by one of romance's finest authors! A great read-- and a great writer!Kristina Wright -- Copyright � 1994-97 Literary Times, Inc. All rights reserved -- From Literary Times
