Jared, Viscount Ravenswood, has no choice but to honor the deathbed wish of his servant: that he introduce her soon-to-be orphaned daughter to the notorious Duchess of Clairborne. But this is no ordinary child. She's the key to the Duchess's shocking secrets, and to Jared's own unexpected past. Original.

Jared, Vicount Ravenswood, is known to society as Lord Beast due to his scarred face. When Lord Beast is refused a dance at his sister's ball, Calantha, Duchess of Clairborne steps forward and asks Jared to dance. Known to all as The Angel, Calantha sees beyond Jared's scars to the honorable man beneath his scarred exterior. With one dance, thus begins the romance between Lord Beast and The Angel.

But their romance won't be an easy one. Both Jared and Calantha have secrets. And intertwined with those secrets is grave danger. Before true happiness can be found, secrets must be revealed and the threat to their family must be eliminated.

I loved Touch Me and Tempt Me. I have been chomping at the bit for Take Me. And I was not disappointed! I adored Take Me from beginning to end! I loved the characters, the twists and turns of the plot, and most of all, I loved the romance between Calantha and Jared.

I have adored Jared from the moment he was first introduced in Touch Me and after reading Take Me, I want him even more. Jared is strong and powerful and has a magnificent presence. I love that Calantha sees beyond his exterior, from the beginning, to the gorgeous man that he is. And he is gorgeous! The thing I love most about Jared, though, is the awe and depth of emotion he feels with Calantha.

Lucy Monroe is one of my favorite authors because I love her heroes. Ms. Monroe writes these deliciously Alpha heroes and is able to capture their emotional vulnerability without lessening their manhood. It's what makes me want her heroes for my own. It's what makes me want Jared oh so much!

Take Me is the final book in this wonderful trilogy. I am sad to see it end. Luckily, I can read these delicious books over and over again. And trust me, I will!
