Heute drei ausgewählte englische Neuerscheinungen aus dem Romancebereich – und auch nur, weil die Autoren zu meinen Lieblingsautoren zählen. Den englischen Markt im Auge zu behalten, würde mich gänzlich überfordern! ;)
Suzanne Enoch: Adventurers’ Club Serie 01 – The Care and Taming of a Rogue
After years away from London, Captain Bennett Wolfe is back—and alive, much to Society’s surprise. Having been presumed dead, this rugged adventurer is now much sought after by every marriage-minded young woman . . . but Bennett only has eyes for the intriguing Lady Phillipa Eddison. Phillipa would rather read than flirt, but she does know a thing or two about proper courtship rituals. A gentleman does not kiss a lady senseless, and he certainly does not bring his pet monkey when he comes calling. Lady Phillipa’s ever been so scandalized . . . or tempted. She simply must teach Bennett some manners—before she succumbs to temptation as wild as the man who offers it.

Only Beatrice can see past Reynaud’s savagery to the noble man inside. For his part, Reynaud is drawn to this lovely lady, even as he is suspicious of her loyalty to her uncle. But can Beatrice’s love tame a man who will stop at nothing to regain his title-even if it means sacrificing her innocence?
