Carlton pretty much runs St. Giles. He tries to make it safer for the people that live there, but he has earned his title of the Scoundrel of St. Giles. When he encounters a runaway bride, he offers her sanctuary in his club. But his motives are all altruistic. The runaway bride's father is the man that took everything from his 20 years ago. He sees this as an opportunity to finally get his revenge.
Regina's father has told her that she will be married. Not knowing what else to do, she runs away the day of the wedding and ends up in St. Giles. She knows who Carlton is, but with nowhere else to go, takes him up on his offer. She soon learns that there is much more to the man than the face that he shows the outside world and soon falls for him. But what will happen when she learns that he is planning her father's downfall?
I loved Carlton and Regina's story. While you don't have to have read the other books in the series to enjoy this one, I think you will get more out of it if you do. We see Carlton throughout the series and having seen glimpses of the real him, was delighted to read his story. I loved watching Regina slowly break down Carlton's walls and seeing them fall in love. Carlton has intrigued me throughout the series and I was so happy to see him get his HEA!! I hope that Barnes in not done with this series as I have throughly enjoyed my venture into their world!!
