The Arrangement by Joan Wolf (Warner Books)
I am afraid that I am about to do something exceedingly shocking.
My adventure began when I came to the Earl of Savile's castle for the
reading of George Devane's will; of which the earl is the executor. I
had every intention of refusing George's blood money, but he foiled
me by leaving it to my young son, Nicky. Because I am a young widow,
this bequest has subjected me to a great deal of unpleasant gossip.
Now I find that I am in the power of the most exciting man I have ever
met, a man whose presence makes me weak, a man who could well be my
ruination...
My review: Aside from the very bad blurb on the back of the book, I loved it. Joan
Wolf is an auto-buy author for me and has been for a long time. This
is one of the old friends that I pulled out of my keeper pile. I
loved it the first time I read it I still love it.
Side note: I'm a writer. Right now, I write mostly for my own pleasure.
That doesn't mean that I wouldn't like to be published some day, but
for now, I just enjoy it. The problem with writing is that it really
effects how I read books. I found myself analyzing the details the
whole way through this one. Its got a simple tone, but you really get
to know Gail and Raoul too (despite the fact that you see him through
Gail's eyes)
