So she dedicates herself to raising her family's prize Thoroughbreds and resigns herself to a life without romance-until she meets Faelan Savigar, the Earl of Iveragh, a mysterious, roguish Irishman whose thoughts are entirely closed to her unusual perceptions. She discovers that she has finally met the man she has been waiting her whole life to discover. He is called "the Devil Earl" and is as enigmatic to everyone else as he turns out to be to Roderica.

Midsummer Moon, My Sweet Folly, and Uncertain Magic
by Laura Kinsale
Part of the Regency Tales series
A trio of captivating historical romances by a New York Times–bestselling author.
One of the New York Times–bestselling and Rita Award–winning author's specialties is the Regency period. This trio of enchanting love stories introduces unforgettable couples who leap off the pages and into our hearts.
Midsummer Moon: Merlin Lambourne has invented the "speaking box"-a sort of telephone-which is so valuable that Napoleon has killed for it. Sent by the crown to bring both inventor and invention to safety, Ransom Falconer, Duke of Damerell, is shocked to learn the eccentric genius is female. More shocking is how beguiled he is by her. Now if he could just get her mind out of the clouds and convince her to marry him...
My Sweet Folly: In a loveless marriage, Folie Hamilton finds her lonely days brightened by letters from her husband's cousin, Lt. Robert Cambourne, stationed in Calcutta. Unbidden love blossoms, yet upon the death of her husband, Robert's last letter shatters her heart with three words: I am married. Four years later, Robert summons Folie and her stepdaughter to England. But the haunted widower is not the man she once knew; he has become paranoid and delusional. In this RITA Award nominee, will Folie find the man who once captured her heart?
Uncertain Magic: In nineteenth-century Ireland, Roddy Delamore has little chance of finding a husband, cursed as she is with the gift of mind reading. Privy to the dishonorable thoughts of her suitors, she seizes on the chance to marry Faelan Savigar, the Earl of Iveragh, despite his poor reputation and murky past. Condemned by dark rumors, Lord Iveragh is taken aback by the woman's proposal. How is it that she believes in him? And does he dare give her his heart?
