"St. Raven," by Jo Beverley, is a captivating historical romance novel set in the late 18th century. The story follows the cunning and enigmatic hero, known as St. Raven, and the strong-willed heroine, Leonie Charnwood. St. Raven, whose real name is Ned Hawthorne, is a master of disguise and a notorious gambler, who has sworn to avenge his father's death. Leonie, on the other hand, is a wealthy heiress, who is determined to protect her family's fortune and reputation from St. Raven's machinations. The novel is a thrilling tale of intrigue, passion, and deception, as St. Raven and Leonie engage in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Beverley's writing is rich and evocative, transporting readers to the glittering world of Regency England, with its elegant balls, grand houses, and complex social codes. One of the strengths of "St. Raven" is the depth and complexity of its characters. St. Raven is not your typical romance hero; he is morally ambiguous, and his motives are not always clear. Leonie, too, is a refreshingly strong and independent heroine, who is not afraid to stand up to St. Raven and challenge his assumptions. Beverley also excels at creating a sense of tension and suspense, as the reader is never quite sure who will come out on top in the battle of wits between St. Raven and Leonie. The novel is full of twists and turns, as St. Raven's true identity is gradually revealed and Leonie's loyalties are tested. In conclusion, "St. Raven" is a highly entertaining and engaging historical romance, with well-developed characters, a richly detailed setting, and a gripping plot. Fans of Beverley's work, as well as readers who enjoy novels by authors such as Lisa Kleypas and Julia Quinn, will find much to enjoy in this captivating tale of love, danger, and intrigue...
