Regency Tales #3
Uncertain Magic
Roderica Delamore has a "gift." Cursed with the unwanted ability to hear the thoughts of others, she is dedicated to raising her family's prize thoroughbreds and resigned to living without love. But one man's mind is inexplicably closed to her: a mysterious Irish rogue who may be the lover she has been dreaming of her entire life.
They call Faelan Savigar "the Devil Earl"—a handsome, impoverished lord damned by dark rumor and whispered innuendo. But the secrets Faelan hides within are what stir Roderica's desire—and her need to experience the intoxicating ecstasy of his kiss. But be he liar, swindler, or worse, Roderica knows she can have no other—and she will trust this enigmatic stranger with her life...and her heart.

She become a romance writer after six years as a geologist--a career which consisted of getting out of bed in the middle of the night and driving hundreds of miles alone across west Texas to sit drilling rigs, wear a hard hat, and attempt to boss around oil-covered males considerably larger than herself. This, she decided, was pushing her luck. So she gave all that up to sit in a chair and stare into space for long periods of time, attempting to figure out What-Happens-Next. She and her husband David currently divide their time between Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Texas.

Zwei Sterne, weil der Anfang ganz gut war und weil die Protagonistin später ein Schwein als Haustier hat. Aber ansonsten kommt dann nur noch dramatische Dramasuppe aus Drama. Ich hatte den Eindruck, dass sich die Autorin nicht entscheiden kann, ob sie eine entschlossene, selbstständige Protagonistin will (wie auf den ersten Seiten) oder eine, die die nächsten 300 Seiten lang von LEIDENSCHAFT und DRAMA umhergespült wird wie eine Qualle von der Strömung.
