Historical Novel.
3rd in magic series
Last novel in the Regency Magic Trilogy. Rafael Carstairs, the mysterious sea captain who worked against Napoleon in "Calypso Magic" is a civilian now and traveling to see his twin brother, Damien Carstairs Baron Drago, in Cornwell. In the middle of a moonless night, Rafael rescues a young girl, Victoria Abermarle, from smugglers, only to find that she's trying to escape his twin, Baron Drago, who tried to rape her. What's a retired spy to do with a young girl whose nubile body and sizable fortune are threatened by his own brother? He does the noble thing, finally. He marries her. And that is just the beginning of their adventures....
This is the last book in the Magic Trilogy. Coulter writes of a sea captian, Rafael Castairs (introduced in "Calypso Magic"), and his journey to London. On the way, he saves Victoria Abermarle, none other than his hated twin's ward. Of course, a romance bloom between the two. Rafael is loving and gentle, although very stubborn, and of course, worms his way into Victoria's heart. Just as Victoria, with her innocence and beauty, worms right into his heart. Sit back and enjoy the love story as it grows between the two. The fight scenes are halirious, the sex scenes steamy, and the mystery and dealings of Damein, Rafael's twin, are twisted. I find this one a highly enjoyable story written by Coulter, which allows us to revisit all the characters from the first two books, however briefly.
