Reviews"Smart, funny, and brimming with passion." -- Julia Quinn "[A] lovely new episode in the Palace of Rogues series, in which the author works romance alchemy on the familiar tropes of forced proximity, opposites attract, and a fake relationship, with magical results.... A Regency romantic drama seething with emotional quakes in the vein of Lisa Kleypas." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on How to Tame a Wild Rogue "Long enhances her complex narration--loaded with wit, mystery, and sizzling romance--with attention to historical detail and the emotional depths of her characters. This may be the author's best yet." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) on You Were Made to Be Mine "Charming...Long's distinctive metaphor-rich style is a treat, a visual and textural tapestry that expresses the characters' emotional lives through their senses. She suffuses the prose with images of fire and musical reverberations, distilling into them the erotic affection, sensual banter, and crackling chemistry that arcs between the combatant lovers. You'll be seduced by this fake-engagement romance set at the London docks." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on I'm Only Wicked with You "Long finds that delectable sweet spot with Angel in a Devil's Arms, welcoming us all to the cozy warmth of the Grand Palace on the Thames with the peculiar blend of humor and pathos she writes with such aplomb." -- Entertainment Weekly

SynopsisIn USA Today bestselling author Julie Anne Long's latest installment in the Palace of Rogues series, an estranged couple decide to fake their way through the London season to repair their good name... but neither are prepared for the genuine sparks that begin flying between them. A blue-blooded beauty bartered to a Beast... He would pay any price to possess her. But even though Alexandra Bellamy sacrifices herself to save her family's fortunes, a shocking betrayal sunders her marriage to a taciturn brute of a war hero, Colonel Magnus Brightwall, before it even begins. Five years of icy separation later, a scandal--with Alexandra at the middle--reunites them, and Magnus issues an edict: they will confront the ton, rescue their reputations, then Magnus will banish her to another continent--forever. But alone in a suite at the Grand Palace on the Thames, a new battle begins--between pride and the unexpected volcanic passion stirring between them. The danger is real: Magnus rediscovers why Alexandra is the only woman who could ever break him. And even as she lays bare the beautiful heart beating beneath the battered hide of the near-stranger she married, Alexandra knows she may have already lost him--even as she finally falls fatally, irrevocably in love., In USA Today bestselling author Julie Anne Long's latest installment in the Palace of Rogues series, an estranged couple decide to fake their way through the London season to repair their good name... but neither are prepared for the genuine sparks that begin flying between them.
