Cathy Maxwell kirjoittaa historiallisia viihderomaaneja, joista saa hakemalla hakea omaperäisyyttä: The earl claims his wife (Avon, 2009; ISBN 978-0-06-135099-3).
Se pitää kuitenkin myöntää että teksti on helppolukuista ja että sivumäärä on maltillinen, joten kovin kauan teoksen lukemiseen ei mene. Kirjasarjassa on ilmestynyt muitakin teoksia, ja osa niistä löytyy Helmetistä, joten voisihan sitä jatkoakin lukurupeamalle miettiä.
Preoccupied with fighting Napoleon and making love to his mistress, Brian Ranson has ignored his wife since their wedding. But now that he's become the Earl of Wright, he's ready to fetch his bride back to London. He's shocked to find she's become a bold, beautiful woman, exactly the kind he lusts after ... and she wants nothing to do with him.
Gillian, Lady Wright, is desperate to seize the love she's been denied ... but not with her rakish husband! So she makes a bargain -- for thirty days she'll be the perfect wife, then he'll set her free. But no matter how she hardens her heart against her damnable earl, her body begs her to surrender
