Night Trilogy (Coulter)

The classic New York Times bestselling tale of romance and intrigue in Regency England . . . Dear Reader, Arielle Leslie is a sixteen-year-old girl forced to wed Paisley Cochrane, a sadistic old man who abuses her. When he dies, she believes herself free. But she's not. Burke Drummond, Earl of Ravensworth-a young man she'd worshipped three years before-is home from the wars, and he wants her. When he catches her, he's in for an appalling surprise. Burke and Arielle are two people who have touched me deeply. Together they faced problems and obstacles never spoken of in Regency time. If you haven't yet read Night Fire, do give it a try. See if you agree with me that Arielle and Burke are two very special people. Catherine Coulter

Dear Reader, You met Alec Carrick in Night Fire. He returns full force-and believe me, this man's got force--in Night Storm, the third novel of the Night Trilogy which I wrote in the Fall of 1988. The Paxtons are shipbuilders in Baltimore. Alec Carrick is an English nobleman who wants to buy them out. Genny Paxton isn't at all what she seems. She dresses like "Eugene" and wants to build her own sailing ships without male interference. Alec, a man of great insight, knows exactly what lies beneath those britches. He gets Genny's goat more times than she can count. This is a love story filled with wit, humor, and outrageous circumstance. It's got more unexpected spins than a roulette wheel. Then there's five-year-old Hallie, Alec's daughter, a charmer who will take hold of your heart and never let go. Do enjoy Alec and Genny--and let me know which of the novels in the Night Trilogy you like best.
