Set in Regency England, Mack’s third Pack of St. James scorcher (after 2008’s Wild
and Wanton
) features the well-drawn character Semyon Taruskin, the youngest of a trio of Russian wolf-blooded brothers who pose as London gentlemen to serve the king. A chance encounter with maid Angelica Harrow drives renowned lover Semyon into lustful fantasies. Angelica’s confident manner and gentle ways convince him she was not born into the servant class, and he intends to make his sensual dreams into reality. When he finds she has been kidnapped, his wolf senses lead him into London’s underworld of orgies, sex slaves and the debauchery of a man known as St. Sin. Titillating sex scenes will keep readers enthralled all the way to a satisfying conclusion that leaves room for future stories featuring secondary characters. (Sept.)
