When Catherine approaches him and asks him to kill someone for her, he’s incredulous, amused, and insulted all at once.
He’s never denied that he’s far from what a proper Earl should be, yet he finds that he can’t let the man who claimed him as his grandson down. Not only did he take Luke in, but he took in the friends that were Luke’s only family. Luke Langdon has never believed that he was the rightful heir to the title, even after his grandfather plucked him off the streets and acknowledged him. Catherine really didn’t know Lucian at all, yet she felt comfortable going and asking him to “dispatch” someone. That was one of the things I didn’t like about this book. That means that he’d immediately agree, yes? See, she needs someone killed and she Lucian is the most unscrupulous person she knows. Now she needs help that she thinks only he can provide. Lucian Langdon has always intrigued her, but since that night she hasn’t been able to forget him. I’ve never read Lorraine Heath, but the blurb intrigued me.Ĭatherine Mabry hasn’t forgotten the night five years before when she locked eyes with the Devil Earl. This is the last book of my historical run.
As secrets from his dark past are revealed, Lucian begins to question everything he knows to be true, including the yearnings of his own heart.įor some reason, I’ve really been into historicals lately. When danger closes in, Catherine discovers a man of immense passion and he discovers a woman of immeasurable courage. But what she asks for in exchange will put their very lives in jeopardy.
Catherine can help Lucian gain everything he wants. Lucian desires respectability and a wife above all else, but the woman of his choosing lacks the social graces to be accepted by the aristocracy. To protect those she loves, she would do anything-even strike a bargain with the devil himself. A proper young lady risks more than her reputation when consorting with the roguishly handsome Lucian Langdon, but Lady Catherine Mabry believes she has no choice. They call him the Devil Earl-a scoundrel and accused murderer who grew up on the violent London streets.
