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.

Laura Kinsale is a New York Times bestselling author and both winner and multiple nominee for the Best Book of the Year award given by the Romance Writers of America.

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.

Ho voluto leggere questo libro dopo il magnifico "la figlia del matematico" sperando di trovare un altro capolavoro della bravissima Kinsale, purtroppo di magico ho trovato solo i poteri sensitivi della protagonista. La trama poteva essere sviluppata meglio il rapporto fra loro l'ho trovato noioso, solo la scrittura sempre superba dell'autrice e i momenti di azione riguardo le tematiche politiche hanno tenuto un po' viva la concentrazione altrimenti penso che lo avrei abbandonato. Peccato perchè i presupposti per un bel libro c'erano tutti soprattutto per la presenza accattivante del misterioso bel protagonista maschile, ma non sono stati sfruttati al meglio quindi per me solo tre stelle.
