A fresh Signet Regency romance "with a twist" (The Romance Reader), June Calvin's popular escapade is available as an e-book for the first time. Olivia Ormhill hasn't trusted a man since she was deceived by her betrothed. Yet there's something special about the destitute but dashing Lord Edmund. A rakish opportunist, perhaps, but he's also disarmingly forthright and devilishly appealing. But when her former fiancé returns to take the hot-tempered bluestocking for himself, both Olivia and Edmund must decide what their unspoken passion is worth, and whether they're willing to wager their hearts for it.

Olivia is highly competent and strong-willed without ever coming across as a spoiled brat. Her confusion is honest and makes sense. The love that develops between Edmund and Olivia is sincere, honest, and finely-drawn. Another rarity for Regency fiction: no sex scenes! The physical interchanges between Edmund and Olivia are tender, restrained, and absolutely beautiful.
The details Calvin provides about haymaking lend a wonderful air of authenticity to the setting.
Finally, I deeply appreciated reading a Regency that presented a clergyman in a positive light.
I found this story as refreshing and engaging as a Carla Kelly or Elizabeth Fairchild. I recommend it. ( )
