The exquisite niece of Lord Edward and Lady Charlotte Malory, Regina Ashton is outraged over her abduction by the arrogant, devilishly handsome Nicholas Eden -- and is determined to make the rogue pay ... with his heart.
A golden-haired seducer, Nicholas has been hardened by a painful secret in his past. And now that he has besmirched Reggie's good name, the hot-tempered lady has vowed to wed him. Her fiery beauty stirs Nicholas as no woman ever has -- and the rake arouses Reggie's passion to an unendurable level. Such uncontrolled desires can lead only to dangerous misunderstandings ... and, perhaps, to a love that can live only once in a lifetime.

When Nicholas Eden kidnaps the woman he is seeing to stop her from going to a party, he thinks he has revenge. When he discovers he has kidnapped the niece of Anthony, James, Edward and Jason Malory, he knows he has made a HUGE mistake, one that is only rectifyable by marriage to stop the scandal that will ensue. Regina didn't want to get a husband THIS way. It will take time for these two to realize that not only are they made for each other, b but that they have a love match... the first in the excellent Mallory series by Johanna Lindsey.
I have a tendency to mark books as better then they are, but with this book, I must admit there is no need for me to do so with this particular book! The first Malory novel was not actually the first one I read, but I found it quite necessary in understanding all the (before reading this) pointless characters.
Because this is the first book of the series, naturally, it contains a lot of introductory descripstions of everyone in the Malory family especially those who will be the primary heroes on the next novel. I'd like to add that this add ons didn't overshadow the love story of Regina & Nick it kinda helps to make you want to read about the other Malory's. Very intriguing. So once you start you'll be hooked! I love Regina's character. She is all fire, spirit and courage and Nicholas is your charming Rake who you cant help but adore. Enjoy a good romance? You'll LOVE this.
One of my favourite of her books. Start with this one and work your way through the series! You wont be disappointed! The Characters are charming and you can't help but fall in love with them. good steamy scenes too!
Regina and Nick's story is the one that started it all... the first Malory novel! Meet Anthony, James, Amy, Jeremy and Dereck along with Edward and Jason and find out for yourself why the world loves Johanna Lindsey's Malory's!.
A mistaken abduction leaves Nick with no choice but to marry Regina Ashton. Getting pregnant leaves Regina with no choice but to marry Nicholas... with meetings with Pirates, abductions galore, this is a great introduction to the wonderful Malory family
