BOOK SUMMARY
The sheltered
daughter of a country baron, Miss Adeline Pimm comes to London looking for
adventure… and finds it in the form of a bloody, unconscious man slumped in the
doorway of her family's rented townhouse. Though his identity is a mystery,
Adeline is inexplicably drawn to the handsome, injured man and vows to nurse
him back to health.
Liam Cavanaugh, the scandalous Earl of Wolford, is startled when he awakens in an unfamiliar bed, wrapped in bandages that hinder his eyesight, with no memory of why he was beaten half to death. Although he can't see the witty young woman who tends to his wounds, her alluring voice--and a single stolen kiss from her soft lips--help soothe his pain. But when he is fully healed, Liam is not ready to let go of the one woman who stirs his deepest longings.
Liam will do whatever it takes to see Adeline again, even if it means giving up his rakish ways. But his disreputable past is not so easily forgotten and his secrets are far more dangerous than he-or Adeline-ever imagined.

EXCERPT
“However, perhaps if my pillow were fluffed.”
She looked at him as if he were teasing her, but played
along nonetheless, chafing her hands together. “I must have an innate talent
for pillow fluffing.”
If one could possess a talent for such a thing, she
certainly did not. Not that he would tell her. Because if he did, he already
knew the result. She would leave his side, and he would lose the relief—or
whatever this was—he found in her presence. And he had never been one to deny himself
necessary comforts.
Then, as she had done before, she leaned over him. Her
hands went to either side of his face, pressing into the pillow, the inviting
plumpness of her breasts resting on his chest. Enjoying the moment, he closed
his eyes and drew in a deep breath that hinted at pear blossoms.
She went still. “Why are your hands at my waist?”
Were they? He squeezed his hands and found that, yes, they
most definitely were. He also discovered that the satin gown was warm from the
heat of her body and fine enough that there was little barrier between his
hands and the slender curve of her waist and the slight flare of her hips.
“I’m merely aiding in your efforts by offering stability,”
he said, by way of an excuse. Of course, he hadn’t intended to touch her—gentleman’s
daughter and all that. Given his pleasure-seeking nature, however, he
wasn’t entirely surprised by his wayward hands. Perhaps he should think about
removing them before he found them cupped around her breasts. Inadvertently, of
course.
“Afraid that I will crush you?” she said with a laugh
against his lips. “Well, do not worry, because I have finished. Your pillow is
sufficiently plump.”
More than. And lumpy as well, but he did not mind in the
least. Especially when he felt her lips against his cheek.
“Thank you, Wolford. I had a delightful evening.”
In the next instant,
he didn’t know what came over him. Suddenly, he found his hand at her nape,
pulling her mouth to his.
CAT'S REVIEW
"This Earl is on Fire" by Vivenne Lorret. Liam and Adeline - two souls that don't want to marry yet can one deny the power of love? Liam is a rake - a true playboy of his time. He doesn't trust easily and believes Adeline is out to trap him. I have to admit, I did get a bit frustrated with him when this attitude continued despite Adeline's behavior. Otherwise, I really liked Liam. Adeline has lived a very sheltered life by her parents, due to a limp she has. I was a bit taken back to the extent at which they sheltered her but, of course, being a parent, can also understand wanting to protect your child. She earns for adventure and to not be coddled. I enjoyed watching her grow throughout the story and be able to stand up for herself. The romance and relationship developed at a really nice pace. I enjoyed the scenes in which these two, despite their tryinig to deny it, fell in love. Ms. Lorret has penned a tale that has a bit of mystery and intrigue and also some humor and pure romance. If you enjoy historical romances, I would recommend this one. (received copy from Edelweiss for honest review)
