LIKE NO OTHER LOVER

Book ID/图书代码: 12730012B57443

English Summary/英文概要: Now or Never. . .

It’s the last chance for Cynthia Brightly, the ton’s most bewitching belle. Driven out of London by a secret scandal, she must find a grand husband at the Redmonds’ house party before word of her downfall spreads all over England. Unfortunately, someone at Pennyroyal Green is already privy to the whispers of broken engagements and dueling lovers: Miles Redmond, renowned explorer and—thanks to his brother’s disappearance—heir to the family’s enormous fortune.
Miles set his sights on Cynthia once, at a time when the ambitious beauty thought herself too good for a second son. But now he’s heir apparent, relishing his control. He strikes a bargain with her: he’ll keep Cynthia’s steamy secrets and help her find a husband among the guests—in exchange for a single kiss.
What could be the harm in a simple kiss? Cynthia is about to discover that it’s enough to unleash fierce passion—and that Miles Redmond is most certainly like no other lover in the world.

Awards/获奖情况:"Where do I begin? Do you ever have the problem of loving a book so much that you just cannot find the words to adequately describe it? That is exactly how this book has made me feel. As I read it I kept marveling at the layers being peeled away, revealing a thoroughly fascinating and complex relationship between two people who have been so wrong about each other right from the beginning. All I wanted to do when I read the last page was to go to the beginning and re-read it all over again and recapture the amazing feeling this story gave me. I wish all the books I read had such magic.--Stacy’s Place on Earth, trelainastarblazer.blogspot.com/2008/11/like-no-other-lover-by-julie-anne-long.html
"One of the best Historical Romances s I’ve read.. Long’s writing is so utterly delightful that she had me laughing out loud at some scenes and mopping up tears while reading other scenes. Her character development is such that Cynthia and Miles are totally realistic"--LadTeeDa Reads,.Therladeetdareads.wordpress.com/2011/07/01/review-like-no-other-lover-by-julie-anne-long/
"Exquisitely sensual... exceptionally well-developed secondary characters and a pair of unforgettable protagonists. This latest in Long’s tales featuring the Eversea and Redmond families is a delightful, urbane, and witty story that readers will savor."--Bette-Lee Fox, The Library Journal
There is plenty of humour to go by in this book to make any fans of say, Julia Quinn, happy. There were a plethora of laugh- out- loud moments from whimsical situations involving Cynthia potential suitors to the sometimes fantastic dialogue but this does not mean that Like No Other Lover is devoid of emotional substance. Quite the contrary - one of the greatest strengthens of the novel lies in the balance between humour and emotion.--the Book Smugglers, thebooksmugglers.com/2009/02/book-review-like-no-other-lover-by-julie-anne-long.html
"I had a party the other day at my house. I spent most of the party hiding out upstairs, trying to read this book in peace. I couldn’t help it, this book was good. The woman can write the heck out of a story and her dialogue is off the chains. The storyline moved at a great pace and it kept me alert and wanting to keep turning the pages. I loved the way that Julie Anne Long painted this story with a vibrant voice that had me reading each and every word in the book and not skimming anything.
Should you read this book? Heck yeah, this book is definitely binge worthy!"--the Book Binge,

About the Author/作者介绍: 土生土長在舊金山海灣地區的茱莉•安妮•朗從小曾勵志成為一個搖滾明星(她塞在衣櫥後帶有流蘇飾邊的衣服和幾把吉他證明了這一點),但是寫作卻一直是她的摯愛。她從新聞專業開始了自己學術生涯,隨後她意識到創意寫作更適合她天馬行空的許多奇特離奇的靈感。截至現在,多年來她還是白天在商業為商業圈,軟件開發,網站設計,和市場營銷打工… 直到那一晚,她在一家潮濕,悶熱的俱樂部隨性的把玩吉他時,她意識到可以把腦海中這些所有美好的事物組合在一起,將這些充滿戲劇,激情和野性的男人,已經自己對愛情歷史等元素融入至小說中去。從那時起,她的愛情小說開始受到了眾多獎項的提名,包括美國Rita言情小說作家獎,浪漫愛情小說時代雜誌精選獎,最佳書商獎和鵝毛筆獎,評論界幾乎一致都用諸如“璀璨的”,“傑出的”,“欲罷不能”等詞彙來讚美她的小說作品。她最近的一部《WHAT I DID FOR A DUKE》,被選為2011年亞馬遜最佳書籍之一。

San Francisco Bay Area native Julie Anne Long originally set out to be a rock star when she grew up (and she has the guitars and fringed clothing stuffed in the back of her closet to prove it), but writing was always her first love. She began her academic career as a Journalism major, until she realized Creative Writing was a better fit for her freewheeling imagination and overdeveloped sense of whimsy. And when playing guitar in dank, sticky clubs finally lost its "charm," Julie realized she could incorporate all the best things about being in a band—namely drama, passion, and men with unruly hair—into novels, while also indulging her love of history and research. Since then, her books have been nominated for numerous awards, including the RITA®, Romantic Times Reviewer’s Choice, the Holt Medallion, Bookseller’s Best, and The Quills, and reviewers have been known to use words such as "dazzling," "brilliant," and "impossible to put down" when describing them.
