Once a starveling
bootblack, Christien Lenoir has risen to become the sword master known
as Faucon, the Falcon. When a desperate gambler stakes his plantation in
a late-night card game, sharp-eyed Christien antes up. For he wants
River's Edge—and the tempestuous widow whose birthright it is. And he
will stop at nothing to have both.
Reine Cassard Pingre feels trapped: the only way to keep her beloved home—and her inheritance—is to accept Christien's bold proposal of marriage. Though she instantly mistrusts his purpose, and despite rumors that she had a hand in her husband's mysterious death, Reine cannot dissuade him from wedding...and bedding...her. Their union is electrifying, but the honeymoon may be cut short by the lurid secrets at the heart of River's Edge.

Set in 1847 New Orleans
This book was boring. I could not get in to it. Took me forever to read.
The storyline was beyond predictable. Every time a minor or major problem arose, you could so tell what would happen next or who was at fault.
There was one interesting part, very near the end and very brief.
Not impressed what-so-ever
