Lucinda Brant's books are absolutely wonderful. She brings the Georgian era to life as no one else can! —Cynthia Wright, NY Times bestseller and author of Caroline
Prequel to the Roxton Family Saga: Renard and Antonia’s Happily Ever After.
1740s France and England—the age of hedonism and enlightenment.
Renard, Duke of Roxton, head of an ancient noble family, is wealthy beyond measure. Arrogant, and self assured, this noble satyr is renowned throughout Europe as the consummate lover of other men’s wives, but Roxton’s heart remains his own.
Beautiful, optimistic, and headstrong, Antonia Moran is determined to flee the Court of Versailles and escape the lascivious attentions of the predatory Comte de Salvan.
Antonia orchestrates her escape with the unwitting assistance of the Duke of Roxton, a man she has been warned against as too dangerous for her to know. Roxton is an unlikely savior—arrogant, promiscuous, and sinister. Antonia's unquestioning belief in him may just be his salvation, and her undoing.
A classic Beauty and the Beast tale, this award-winning historical is a homage to Georgette Heyer's These Old Shades.
“It’s the golden age of French aristocratic life in the court of Louis XV. Beneath the posturing and hedonism lies a seething hotbed of intrigue, deceit, and treachery. A passionate romance with added action and adventure, derring-do, and some narrow escapes! I loved it.” —Fiona Ingram, Readers’ Favorite 5 STAR Medal Winner
“An intelligent and intricately layered tale of scandal, intrigue and enduring love. This is so much more than a love story; it’s a story of culture, political events, and the plight of those who must live in the tempest. The pairing of the dissolute Roxton with the much younger, innocent Antonia could have been the recipe for disaster but Ms Brant pulls it off brilliantly.” —Booktalk with Eileen
