As the captivating Hunt Club series from RITA award finalist Pamela Labud continues, a notorious earl and a brokenhearted young lady are running from love . . . until their foolproof scheme backfires in the most decadent way. Though he’s fiercely loyal to his friends, Michael Carver has managed to avoid romantic entanglements by cultivating a reputation as a rake and a gambler. Believing himself incapable of intimacy, the Earl of Blandon avoids anything more than lighthearted flirtations or trysts with married women—which leaves more than enough time to slip out into the wilderness for a little fishing. All is well until Michael agrees, as a favor, to keep his best friend’s stubborn yet alluring sister-in-law company. After one failed engagement, Beatrice Hawkins would rather become a spinster than risk her heart again. Her family, however, is relentless when it comes to finding her a suitable match. So when the roguish earl suggests they join forces to feign courtship and throw everyone off their scent, Beatrice only hopes the ton will take the bait. But at the hunting lodge where Michael takes her to escape prying eyes, Beatrice finds herself lured in by the unexpected charms of a man who has so much love to give—even if he doesn’t know it yet. Praise for A Most Delicate Pursuit “Pamela Labud has done it again! A Most Delicate Pursuit is as much fun as the first book in her well-written and romantic Hunt Club series. I so enjoyed Michael and Beatrice’s story, and I can’t wait to read the third!”—USA Today bestselling author Carole Mortimer “Pamela Labud weaves a captivating tale of headstrong lovers thrown together to escape danger. Adventurous twists and turns kept me riveted, and the sensual romance between Michael and Beatrice left me breathless.”—USA Today bestselling author Christy Carlyle “A rollicking romantic adventure, A Most Delicate Pursuit is such a memorable read!”—Diana Quincy, author of Spy Fall “A thrilling read that will satisfy the historical romance reader and those who like some action drama to their reading.”—Sportochick’s Musings “Would I recommend it? Yes, if you are a true Regency or historical romance fan then you’ll get an exciting, suspenseful story.”—Keeper Bookshelf “This is the second book in this series that I have read and it is just as good as the first one.”—Book Reviews by duelilias “I'm rating A Most Delicate Pursuit by Pamela Labud a five out of five stars. Another thoroughly enjoyable Regency romance from one of my newest favorite authors!”—Reviews by a Thrifty Mom Includes a special message from the editor, as well as an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

Delicate Pursuit explores the way in which Henry James and Edith Wharton treated subject matter that was considered controversial by American publishers at the turn of the century. In their treatment of risque topics, James and Wharton pursued discretion, the key concept of this study, in order to avoid censorship. Discretion marks not only the author's relationship to their subject matter but also the behavior of the characters in the fiction. This study takes into particular account the influence of the French literary tradition on these two authors. At the crossroads of the new freedom of expression opened up by French realism and the persisting puritanical standards of their American audiences, James and Wharton sough safe ways to address adult sexuality, and the French theme of adulterous love in particular.
