Celebrated storyteller Gaelen Foley brings her craft to new heights with Devil Takes a Bride, the seductive tale of a man bent on revenge and the beauty who teaches him to love again. . . . In the quiet English countryside, far from the intrigues of London, Lizzie Carlisle slowly mends her broken heart, devoting herself to her new position as lady's companion to the Dowager Viscountess Strathmore-- until her peaceful life is turned upside down by a visit from "Devil" Strathmore, the old woman's untamed nephew--a dangerously handsome man whose wicked reputation hides a tortured soul. Devlin Kimball, Lord Strathmore, has spent years adventuring on the high seas, struggling to make his peace with the tragedy that claimed the lives of his family. But now he has uncovered the dark truth behind the so-called accident and swears retribution. He has no intention of taking a bride--until his eccentric aunt's will forces he and Lizzie together, and Devlin finds his path to vengeance blocked by the stubborn but oh-so-tempting Miss Carlisle. Her passionate nature rivals his own. But disillusioned once by love, Lizzie will accept nothing less than his true devotion. . . .… (más)

Dedicated with love and many fond memories to all my wonderful cousins on both sides --
The never-a-dull-moment Kennedy clan, who made Sundays at Mimi and Pap's house so much fun, and the wild-and-wacky Foley bunch who throw great family reunions complete with ghost stories around the campfire.
Blessings and much joy to you, your spouses, and adorable children.
Special thanks to Dan, the brother I never had, and to Tim, who tells people everywhere he goes to read his little cousin's books.
Love you, and thanks for bringing so much joy and laughter into my life....

Moonlight flashed on three black racing-drags tearing up the Oxford Road, a heedless cavalcade -- whips cracking, snorting blood-horses wild eyed and flecked with foam.
