Summary: Stuart's best Historical Romance
Review: Anne Stuart is one of my favourite authors, I admit that - but for a very good reason. She is simply one of the best writers around in either Contemporary or Historical romances. In To Love a Dark Lord, as usual, she delivers - this time one of her best Historicals ever!

She is the queen of creating bad boys with blackhearts and souls. This time the scoundrel is James Killoran, who has a heart and soul so black he himself knows there is only one reason to lives, and that is revenge. He once loved a redheaded woman, only to have her destroyed. James could not save the woman he loved, so his only reason for living is vengeance, but he is no where closer to achieving that aim. The road to revenge can be a bloody dull, long and boring reason to live, since he cannot find the right weapon to extract it, so he uses people to relieve the tedium of his ennui. Mostly, he's just drunk and in a fowl mood with his self-loathing.

The book opens with Emma Lagolet escaping a ravishing. Between her graceless attempts at saving herself, and the drunken James tarnished knight in shining armour rescue, Emma escapes. He deposits her where she can find a possession as help, only to discover she must again fight off the advances of her employer's amorous son. James at first thinks it a hallucination as Emma flops over his wooden fence. But the Irish Lord, again, goes to great pains to save Emma - just for the entertainment. Then James is struck that Emma is the perfect instrument to complete his long awaited vengeance. Emma who now loves James will go to any length to win James' love. James, too, is falling for Emma, but he will let nothing stand in his way from his revenge.

It is so funny, with strong characters, proving once again, Stuart is the tops in her field. One of the Best! Why this is not in reprint is ONE BIG MYSTERY!

Summary: Stuart's Best Historical!!!
Review: Anne Stuart is one of my favourite authors, I admit that, but for a reason. She is simply one of the best either for comptemporary or historical and as usual she delivers - this time one of her best historicals ever!

She is the Queen of creating bad boys with blackhearts and souls. This time the scoundrel is James Killoran, who has a heart and soul so black he himself knows there is only one reason to lives and that is revenge. But then revenge, can be a bloody dull and boring reason to live, since he cannot find the right weapon to extract it, so he uses people to relieve the tedium of his boredom when he is not drunk - and sometimes when he is! As he continually rescues poor Emma Lagolet from some of the most amusing and yet dangerous situations, we know the Irish Lord has met his match. He believes he has found the perfect instrument to form his vengeance, and will not let his attraction from Emma stand in his way.

It is funny, with strong characters, proving once again, Stuart is the tops. One of the Best!!

Summary: The Best Historical Romance Ever !!
Review: This book is my absolute favorite Romance Novel. I have not found any Romance before or since that I have liked better. This book should have been available in hardcover as well as paperback. I really can't say why I singled this book out of all the others that I have read but my fantasy is that one day they will make this book into a movie. I don't understand why this book is no longer in print. I fell in love with all the characters in the book. I cannot express enough how much I love this book.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: TO LOVE A DARK LORD is wonderfully original.....
Review: This is my third Anne Stuart book. It is also one of my favorite romances ever. It is extremely well-written, dark, sexy, humurous in a black humor kind of way, romantic, and emotional. The plot is original and daring. Killoran is the dark lord to end all dark lords. Emma is his perfect match. Additionally, there are wonderful secondary characters: honorable Nathaniel, Lady Barbara of the bad reputation, and the elderly, bawdy Lady Seldane. And two creepy villians, Miriam and Darnley. The ending is superb. Don't miss this book!
