Book Review By Becky Lee
Lady of Desire by Gaelen Foley

In this fourth installment of Gaelen Foley's Knight family series, Lady Jacinda Knight, youngest of the Knight family runs away from home, only to find herself in the middle of a gang war in the seedy underbelly of 1816 London. When Jacinda finds herself rescued by none other than the criminal world's swarthy leader, Billy Blade, her world turns upside down. Running from a marriage she doesn't want, and the fear of becoming a “fallen” woman like her mother, Jacinda finds herself thrust back into the world she was running from.

When the presumed dead Earl of Rackford shows up, Jacinda is taken off guard to realize the most eligible gentleman in her upper class world is none other than the rookery thief who leaves her slightly weak in the knees. Jacinda spends the novel turning Rackford into a gentleman, while Rackford turns Jacinda into a scandalous heroine.
