<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published: Hedgehog Inc., 1990.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A lady desiring vengeance seeks a highwayman's help in this tale by an author whose novels are "the gold standard in historical romance" (Lisa Kleypas).</b> <p/> Lady Leigh Strachan's father governed the town of Felchester--until a religious zealot murdered her family and turned the village into hell on Earth. Now, there is room in her heart for only one thing: revenge. <p/> Leigh plans to kill her father's murderer once she learns to aim a pistol, slash a sword, and ride a horse. She seeks out the Prince of Midnight, a legendary highwayman exiled to France, as her choice of tutors. But the man she finds in a crumbling French castle is no hero. Half deaf and suffering from vertigo, S. T. Maitland can scarcely walk, much less wield a sword atop a dancing stallion. Yet for reasons she can't explain, she remains with him, steeling her heart against the sight of his gold-streaked hair, green eyes, and brows adorned with a devilish curl at the arch . . . <p/> Women mean nothing but trouble to the highwayman, so he wishes Leigh were less alluring. Alas, she is beautiful, with a piercing gaze and a determined spirit. Despite his broken balance, the loss of his horse, and the price on his head, he vows to return to England with her. He cannot resist the challenge--or the chance to sacrifice everything for love . . . <p/> The <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>Flowers from the Storm</i> and <i>Shadowheart</i>, Laura Kinsale writes an "unfailingly brilliant and beautiful" romance (Julia Quinn).<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Laura Kinsale is one of the romance genre's brightest stars." --Loretta Chase, <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>Lord of Scoundrels</i> <p/> "Laura Kinsale creates magic." --Lisa Kleypas, <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Laura Kinsale is the award-winning and <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>The Shadow and the Star</i>, <i>Seize the Fire</i>, <i>The Prince of Midnight</i>, <i>Flowers From the Storm</i>, <i>For My Lady's Heart</i>, and <i>The Dream Hunter</i>.
