From Publishers Weekly
Lyndell ( Tapestry of Pride ) sets a predictable love story in the debauched and perilous years of the Stuart challenge to the Hanoverian kings. The Scottish Baron Kinsale and Gillie, a beauteous maid forced to make her way as a thief in the London slums, fall in love; the all-too-familiar plot is revived neither by the spirited dialogue nor even by Lyndell's commendably drawn hardscrabble locales. Worse yet, a key scene in which a scheming patrician woman supposedly makes a selfless show of love by burning a letter that could somehow incriminate the blameless Baron Kinsale strains credibility, making the Baron seem gullible instead of noble. The ending is pure deus ex machina, where the return of a man presumed dead is merely one of the hoary devices employed.

Then the delicate beauty encountered the handsome and gallant Baron Kinsale. When she boldly freed the rugged Scotsman from a band of cutthroats, she knew she would risk everything to possess him. Yet this wild sweet waif, this unpolished pearl, was still a lass. . .and Kinsale dared not yield to his desire. Instead he made her his ward, and sent her off to be schooled in the gentle arts and graces thus far denied her. . . . .Soon Gillie flourished into a ravishing woman, aching for a love too long forsaken. And Kinsale, unhappily pledged to another, swore at last to make her his own. Menaced by a deadly betrayal, they would test the power of their bond.and fight to claim the wondrous pleasure of their passion, forever! . . .See photos for additional content. . .
