This starts out strong, flags in the middle but ends strong. I really liked emotionally tortured Lord Jonathan Devoran St. George. He's an adventurer but his family just doesn't understand his need to roam. Upon his return to England, a twist of fate puts Anne Marsh in his sights. Jack is very smooth and even after breaking into her house, convinces her to travel with him. For a young English miss engaged to be married (to someone else), it all goes downhill from there. Anne lets down her guard and converses with Jack as an equal which, of course, gets her in serious trouble. Their travels and their "night of sin" are tedious and boring. Once they arrive at his ancestral home, the action heats up again, and the story finishes strong. Not the best I've read by Julia Ross but not the worst either.
