Synopsis: Hugo Marshall earned the nickname "the Wolf of
Clermont" for his ruthless ambition--a characteristic that has served him
well, elevating the coal miner's son to the right hand man of a duke. When he's
ordered to get rid of a pestering governess by fair means or foul, it's just
another day at work. But after everything Miss Serena Barton has been through at
the hands of his employer, she is determined to make him pay. She won't let
anyone stop her--not even the man that all of London fears. They might call
Hugo Marshall the Wolf of Clermont, but even wolves can be brought to heel...

Review: This is the prequel to Milan's The Brothers Sinister series and explored the romance of one of the main male protagonist's parents. It was okay. I thought the characters were given depth, which is hard in a short story, but the idea that the heroine would go from being raped to volunteering to have sex with someone so quickly didn't seem plausible. Still, I suppose, it's a story, and it's worth reading if you liked the series. Still, their romance seemed a bit rushed for my taste - and I never got the true idea that the main hero was so scary.
