For the past two years Angel Chadbourne has played the mournful widow, but no more. With her morning period over, so is her celibacy. Now that she is rid of her self-centred, womanising husband she is going to live her life her way. This time there will be no ties to one man, no emotional attachment, just passion. But first she needs to learn about passion, and pleasure. Angel turns to the one man she knows will be able to teach her the joy of sex. The Duke of Sex himself, her best friend's brother, Harry Atherton, the Duke of Sexton.

Harry has a reputation with the ladies, a reputation he is proud of. In truth, he has been waiting for one woman to be able to unleash his passion on, Angelique Chadbourne. Harry has fantasised about Angel for years. Now that she is free from the loveless marriage, he will do whatever he must to get her into his bed and keep her there.

Neither Harry nor Angel realise that their passion is being observed by a crazed man, or that Angel's life is in danger.

Set in the time of Jack the Ripper, Sherrill Quinn writes a hot and sizzling story of love and trust. Angel and The Duke of Sex brings suspense, intrigue and smouldering sex to the pages of this novella. Ms Quinn keeps you on the edge of your seat guessing just who Jack the Ripper could be, and all the time entertaining you with the love affair of Angel and Harry.

Harry is a hero well worth falling in love with, he'll do whatever it takes to please the woman he loves, even share her with another man. Angel is a strong heroine, no longer willing to live in the shadow of a man. She knows what she wants and goes after it. Be warned: the sex in this novel is high voltage.

This is a well written, erotic suspense romance. Both Harry and Angel are easy to like and are made for each other. Each of the secondary characters brings an added element to the story, they have their roles and play them well. A great erotic read.
