| At twenty-six, aspiring novelist Avis Copley intends to wear spinsterhood as a badge of honour. But when she discovers a volume of erotica that ignites a searing fire within her, Avis realizes just how much she doesn't know about the actual pleasures of the flesh. Determined to learn more, she devises a daring plan...Avis chooses Emory Billingsworth, a fellow novelist - not to mention a beautiful specimen of manhood - to instruct her in carnal pleasure. But when the brash earl of Selby, Banning Talbot, a man she has known for years, unearths Avis' true intentions, he claims she's made a dangerously bad choice. Volunteering his services for one wicked night of reckless, abandoned passion, Banning promises he will satisfy all of her deepest longings. Yet, Banning cannot begin to imagine the effect his wilful, voluptuous, and very eager student will have on him - or how far an innocent lesson in desire can go. |

Numerous very talented new authors are being showcased by Zebra publications at a surprisingly affordable price of $3.99! Such is the case with new rising author - Christie Kelley and her new novel EVERY NIGHT I'M YOURS.
The plot is surprisingly fresh and Kelley's writing style is absolutely wonderful. Descriptive, funny and enchanting the story flows across the pages full of sizzle and sexual tension.
Lady Avis Copley is an aspiring novelist. She defies convention by living alone, being a writer and at her age - a spinster in the Ton. Surrounded by very strong and loyal friends she is self sufficient, has money and is the very picture of happy spinsterhood. That is until she discovers an erotica book and she realizes that what is lacking in her writings is the emotion of love and sexual overtones. So she decides to take a lover much to the chagrin and shock of her friends. When she declares that she has chosen her friend and fellow novelist - Emory Billingsworth - the girls are quite taken aback.
Her best friend Jeannette Talbot's brother is the Earl of Selby - Banning Talbot. Banning and Avis have always been at odds, always bickering and at each other's throats. When Sophie, one of the Avis's friends, and the most outspoken of the lot approaches Banning and tells her of Avis' decision and who she has chosen he decides that he has to step in and save her. Billingsworth has a tarnished reputation of treating women badly and is a cad - even though Banning has been physically attracted to Avis since they shared a kiss eight years past - he feels honor bound to warm Avis. When Avis completely dismisses his warnings he has no choice but to blackmail her into having the affair with him. If she is going to ruin herself and give up her virginity - he is dammed well going to be the one up for the task!!
They leave London for his estate in the countryside - a charming cottage. Avis has bad motion sickness and is ill the through the whole carriage trip and much to Avis' surprise, Banning is caring and considerate to her plight.
Banning has had a secret attraction to Avis - he is looking for a wife and the more he gets to know her the more he realizes that she is the perfect match. The problem is trying to convince her to marry him as Avis has sworn never to marry because of the marriage her parents had.
The two weeks that they spend together are pure bliss - both fall in love but fail to admit it, and soon their idyllic time in the countryside comes to an end.
Christie Kelley has penned gem of a Regency - a very unusual and fast paced, sensual story. Keep a look out for her next installments as Kelley has a bright future indeed! Brava Ms. Kelley - this one was fab!

| I was a little worried when I saw the length of the book. I love a big detailed book so I was afraid it would be very shallow plotwise. I'm also not a huge romance reader. And all that being said, I really enjoyed this book. At first I thought the premise was going to be hard to accept but the way that Christie Kelly writes really brings you along. Her characters have depth and are interesting. Her love scenes are fresh and different each time. I read the whole book in one sitting. I had no desire to put it down until I knew what was going to happen with Avis and Banning. What a pleasant surprise. I even found myself picking it back up today to re-read portions of it. I would recommend it in a heartbeat! |
Every Night is the best!!!

Every Night I'm Yours is a fantastic read. The story is about two people who are meant for each other. Avis Coply wears her spinsterhood like a shield to avoid getting hurt by people. Banning Talbot, earl of Selby has been attracted to Avis for a long time. Even though Avis doesn't want to get married, she wants to experience pleasures of the flesh. Banning volunteers his services, but can he give her up after their affair?
Even though Avis tries to say no to marriage, Banning will do anything to win the woman he loves, even if he has to blackmail her. I totally loved this book and hope this author keeps writing.
Bravo!! A+++

| I totally recommend this book to keep... It is out of expectation as by the cover, I would think it is all about love making and nothing else. But it touches the need to release womanly need in understanding relationship and overcoming trust and fear. It added some humour which added my repeated reading, well written with expression that it is easy to touch your heart and feel the feelings of the Hero and Heroine. |
Finished in one evening !

This is a historical novel based in England. Avis is a 26 year old `spinster' who does not want to marry because of her parent's violent marriage. She decides that wants to experience love making `for research for her book'. She chooses creepy Emory Billingworth another writer to be her lover. When Banning Talbot finds out about her plan he sets out to stop her - and volunteers to take Emory place. Now the twist is that Emory and Avis fight ALL the time due to little kissing wager years ago. Lots of laugh out loud moments and some great twists, ENJOY! Looking forward to to Jennette's Story due out in 2009.
I would also suggest; Let Sleeping Rogues Lie (School for Heiresses) , How to Abduct a Highland Lord and Once A Rake (Zebra Historical Romance) |
