Ravished
by Virginia Henley

Flame-haired Alexandra Sheffield has always been expected to marry the wealthy Lord Christopher Hatton. But desperate for a life filled with adventure she's in no hurry to marry the spoiled aristocrat. Instead, she's consumed with longing for Lord Hattton's devastatingly dangerous twin, Nicholas.

When his twin gambles away his inheritance and plans to refill his pockets by marrying spirited young Alex, Nick risks everything to prevent the scheming seduction. But when the girl he sets out to save becomes the glorious woman he longs to ravish, he must force himself to resist her wild beauty and reckless flirtation--before his desires erupt in a single, scorching moment that can never be undone.



Virginia Henley's Bio

I write lush and lusty historical romances in both hardcover and paperback. My authentic medievals, set in England, Ireland and Scotland have received critical acclaim and garnered many awards.

My great passion is HISTORY...however, I am a historical ROMANCE author, and that means the romance has to play a greater role than the history. Because my books contain so much heavy, authentic history, they have to have an extremely sensual romance to offset and balance the story. I take a solid chunk of meticulously researched history and blend it with a hot, erotic love story, or sometimes I even use two couples. My heroes are dark, dominant and dangerous, and my heroines are always a match for them!

My readers have come to expect a certain level of lust when they buy a Virginia Henley, and I never want to disappoint my readers! When I weave a tapestry of history combined with hot sensuality, it's like magic; it's a one-two punch that satisfies the reader, and satisfying my readers is my number one goal.
