The way to do that was to stop drinking alcohol.

One day he would forget and allow the oblivion of total madness to descend on his soul. But his forebears had borne the same gifts-or curse, as he preferred to call them on occasion-for as long as human memory lasted. It had been his day for the last thousand years, although Blaize himself could only claim a couple of hundred. “Our day?” d’Argento purred, but the sound held a warning. “All those silks and satins, the candlelight-in our day we had torches and drapery.” Pretty, isn’t it?”īlaize moved across the ballroom toward a waiter bearing a tray of wine, his manner easy, not revealing his need for the drink. However, d’Argento had only recently arrived on these shores and they didn’t know him very well. His reputation was bad, but d’Argento could meet him and even overtake him in the right mood. Why should he when he was telling the truth?īlaize laughed outright. They like me.” D’Argento arched a brow, daring Blaize to disagree with him. “Mothers locking up their daughters, you mean?” He glanced at his friend, a cynical smile quirking the corners of his mouth. The pier-glasses set between each window reflected the light back at the participants.īlaize enjoyed the spectacle but preferred to remain apart from it, if he could.

In spring, at the height of the Season, the matchmakers were in full cry. “If you listen hard you can hear the sound of keys turning in locks,” d’Argento remarked, gazing around the crowded ballroom. Warning: Contains a rake who can make a woman’s good sense completely melt away, and a debutante who isn’t afraid to spread her wings to fly in the face of convention.

Now that Blaize knows the true identity of his captor, he will fight for Ariane even if it means using his terrifying ability to drive everyone around him insane-including himself. When Blaize disappears, Ariane embarks on a treacherous cross-country chase to find him, knowing that if she fails, she must marry her mother’s choice: Marcus. She knows what she wants, and it is the stunningly handsome Blaize, even if it means defying her powerful mother. One look at Lady Ariane Wells and he is consumed with an instant, almost violent compulsion to protect her from the attentions of another man who smells of Titan-Marcus, Duke of Lyndhurst.Īriane is no shy debutante. Until he enters a ballroom, hunting for the Titans who destroyed his father. No wonder: he is secretly the embodiment of Bacchus, god of wine and madness. Wherever he goes, Blaize, Marquess of Stretton, hears the jingle of keys as society mothers lock up their daughters. The fight for their love will be a battle of Olympian proportions.
