Brimstone, by Sonia Simone

Brimstone was actually a lot more fun than i had initially thought it would be. My first impressions on picking the novel up were: "another Regency-period comedy of manners with cravats and corsets, blah, blah, blah." And actually, it is. But i have to say, the hero, Lord Brynston, is excessively sexy, and the heroine is even quite tolerable. Oddly enough, the character who i really enjoyed the most was Brynston's little brother--a VERY minor character--who seems to be some sort of larval, unnervingly articulate Devil-incarnate. The antagonists seemed to lack a truly believable motivation for pursuing Katie and her father (some moonshine about owing money .... Not that anyone really reads Regency novels for the quality of it's villain's motives. However, i kept trying to reconcile a couple of middle-eastern henchmen eunning loose about the urbane English countryside for years looking for the Starrs and gave myself a headache. on the whole though, lots of fun.
