Devil in Spring

Kleypas is an amazing writer. In my opinion, she might be the most technically skilled historical romance author out there * Smart Bitches, Trashy Books * A gratifying series starter from a not-to-be-missed romance author * Kirkus on Marrying Winterborne * The first in a new historical series delivers everything readers have come to expect from RITA Award-winning Kleypas, including insightful characterization, an abundance of super-charged sexual chemistry, a dash of dry humor, and a to-die-for hero, all of which will have the author's legions of fans giddy with delight at her triumphant return to historical romance * Booklist on Marrying Winterborne * Cold-Hearted Rake brings to mind some of the best elements of her Hathaway, Wallflower, Gambler, and Capital Theatre series novels . . . Reading Kleypas' long-awaited return to historical is akin to walking into the arms of an old friend * Heroes and Heartbreakers * I simply cannot wait to see where Kleypas goes with the next three books. I also need her to write them faster. SERIOUSLY FASTER.
