Helpful Score: 1
This book smacks you in the face from the first page. It's one of my favorite trilogies Catherine Coulter has done. It's intense, quick and hard to put down. I own them and will keep them in my little library
This is a good book about Arielle Leslie and Burke Drummond.
The Night Series is GREAT.... make sure to read all three books in order .. Night Fire, Night Shadow and Night Storm.

Dear Reader:
Night Fire, the first of the Night Trilogy, was first published in early 1989. I haven't rewritten it, just cleaned it up a bit and Avon books has given it a wonderful new cover.
Arielle Leslie is a sixteen-year-old girl forced to wed Paisley Cochrane, a sadistic old man who abuses her. When he dies, she believes herself free. But she's not.
Burke Drummond, Earl of Ravensworth -- a young man she'd worshipped three years before -- is home from the wars, and he wants her. When he catches her, he's in for an appalling surprise.
I hope Burke and Arielle are two people who will touch you as deeply as they touched me. They face problems and obstacles never spoken of in Regency times.
If you haven't yet read Night Fire, do give it a try.

The first book of the "Night" trilogy.
Romance, typical Coulter
This is the first book in the Night trilogy and was written in 1989 so it is an older series.
