Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Drawn from her peaceful country existence by the death of her celebrated courtesan mother, Celia Pennifold, who fled London's demimonde lifestyle five years earlier, returns to an inherited mountain of debt, a small town house (complete with Jonathan Albrighton, an attractive, mysterious tenant), and the chance to build a new, independent life. When a villain (and money owed) from her past threatens Celia's future, she begins considering her mother's path, but she neglects to weigh Jonathan's feelings for her and his fierce determination not to let that happen. Secrets, mystery, and scandal add intrigue to the plot of this dexterous adventure that reprises characters from the two previous entries in Hunter's enthralling quartet. VERDICT With searing sensuality, palpable sexual tension, and exquisitely rendered, complex characters, Hunter's third series entry draws readers into her realistic Regency arena and provides them with a tantalizing glimpse of the uncommon, fascinating world that hovers just behind the facade of polite society. Sensitive, thoughtful, and beautifully done. Hunter (Provocative in Pearls) lives in Pennsylvania.

    an entertaining historical thriller

    In London, only courtesan, four mirthful young lords, a fifth somber man, and the daughter attend the funeral of the renowned courtesan Alessandra Northrope. That daughter Celia Pennifold had been trained by her mom in using her female wiles to seduce men, but the child was unable to follow her mother's footsteps and has refused to tease men into taking care of her.

    With her mom's death, Celia inherits the estate, which includes a small house in London. Celia decides to live in her new home, but is taken aback to find a tenant occupying the place. She was clueless to the fact that her mom rented a room to Jonathan Albrighton. He is attracted to her, which stuns him; but also conceals his undercover work to prove Alessandra sold information to the enemy during the Napoleonic Wars. Celia applies the sexual skills her mother taught her because as her debts prove overwhelming, she needs to know who her father is and seduces Jonathan.

    The third Rarest Blooms Regency romantic mystery (see Provocative in Pearls and Ravishing in Red) is an entertaining historical thriller due to the strong lead couple. Celia vowed to never use her erotic education, but turns to those tricks to seduce Jonathan who already decided he wanted her. With the mystery of espionage issue hanging over their relationship like a pendulum sword, readers will relish this exciting thriller.

    Highly recommended - great read

    This is the third of Madeline Hunter's Regency Quartet. The first two books were great reads. This book is another great read. The story makes you sigh in satisfaction at the end. The characters are strong people. Jonathan and Celia are definitely not wimps. Even if they both have been ostracized by society, they managed to hold their own. You would appreciate their strength and intelligence and the love they have for each other. The other characters, who you would also find in the first two books, are also very entertaining. The Duke of Castleford is another character that I look forward to - he will be the hero in Dangerous in Diamonds along with Daphne. I can't wait for the book to come out.

    This is Celia's story and third in this series.

    My favorite in this series is "Ravishing in Red", Audriana's story, from the "Rarest Bloom". You will not be disapointed in any of the three books plublished so far. Good exciting plot, not predictable and totally romantic with a deep sense of true lasting love.

    Solid historical romance with noble hero and heroine

    Sinful in Satin is the third book in Madeline Hunter's Rarest Blooms series. Celia Pennifold, the daughter of an infamous courtesan had managed to escape from reality for a few years as she lived in isolation among a few women in the country. When her mother dies, Celia is forced to come to terms with her identity and reconcile her estate. Celia chooses to leave the Rarest Blooms and live in a modest home her Mother's estate left to her. She is surprised by a tenant, Mr. Jonathan Albrighton one night when he accosts her in her room by mistake.

    Madeline Hunter's writing is like an old friend. I love revisiting and catching up with her. Jonathan and Celia ignite on the page with their forbidden sexual tension. Jonathan is not sure whether or not Celia or her mother was involved with political ties, linking them to traitorous activities. His attraction to Celia and vice versa makes things very tense while he is trying to find answers.

    I could have done without all the political intrigue. That is just me though; I have never been a fan of the spy plot and could care less about traitors and such. I felt that Jonathan was an upstanding character with much strength and confidence given his situation with his family. Curious as to where his strength came from. Celia was no wilting flower and was more the aggressor than one would suspect at first glance. I can always admire a heroine who goes after what she wants.

    Since it is a series, there are glimpses at the mysterious Duke of Castleford. Will he be paired up with the lovely Daphne of the Rarest Blooms? I see hero material, but will he be redeemed? He is the ultimate, debauched rake after all. Dangerous in Diamonds will be released in May 2011. All I can say is that I am hooked.
