***
What woman would dare make her home at eerie Marshbanks Abbey, perched on a stony hill in remote Northumbria? It is said its owner, the brilliant botanist, Lord Stacks, killed his beautiful bride there ten years earlier.

Unaware of the tales of Lord Stacks' wickedness, Freddie Lambeth comes to live with her guardian, and through his caring blossoms from a plain, shabbily dressed girl to a lovely young woman. Freddie and Lord Stacks come to need each other as his flowers need sunshine, but Stacks cannot allow himself to love her. His own wickedness has destroyed any chance for happiness.

    Regency romance with a twist

    My Lord Wicked is Regency romance with a few twists. When Miss Freddie Lambeth arrives at the isolated North Country home of her guardian, Lord Stacks, he is most disconcerted. All he knew of his ward, the child of his old Oxford friend, was the name Freddie; he is expecting Frederick, not Fredericka. Far from a society beauty, Freddie has spent her eighteen years in the country, assisting her late father with his surgery practice, mixing herbs and medicines for him. Drawn to Lord Stacks by his considerate manner--and his botanical knowledge--she refuses to believe the rumors about his wicked past. Lord Stacks takes those rumors, and the memory of his late wife's tragic and unexplained death, all too seriously, and for the sake of her reputation he plans to send Freddie back to her life as the poor relation in her uncle's household. But somehow those plans prove all too difficult to act upon. Despite the difference in their ages--and the local suitors for Freddie's hand--guardian and ward are kindred spirits. But the mystery of Lady Stacks' death threatens to keep them apart forever. The author's deep knowledge of the Regency period provides a fascinating picture of country life, far away from the typical London society setting. Her characters remain true to their time and place, and her plot adds a Gothic twist to the romance. My Lord Wicked is another highly enjoyable read from Cheryl Bolen.

    A little stilted

    Started out well, but more stilted as the story developed. Hope this author's next attempt is a little more relaxed. But at least a full book (as opposed to a chapter/sample).

    recommend it.

    Interesting story, could use a little more character depth. Too short to really give the story time to develop. Quick read for when you don't have a lot of time.
