That word always works well.” “Only because you work so hard at being one,” she hissed. “Believe me, it takes no effort at all.” His hand tightened at her waist possessively and he swept her toward the balcony. When she tried to pull away he caught her. “Don’t fight me any more,” he whispered. She shook her head. “Ivan, we’ll destroy each other.” “So let’s destroy each other,” he answered huskily before claiming her mouth in a soul-searching kiss. “McKinney’s third novel is her best yet. Her exuberant sense of wit and style make WHEN ANGELS FALL the perfect Valentine.” —The Times-Picayune A Selection of the Doubleday Book Club Also by Meagan McKinney MY WICKED ENCHANTRESS Romance Writers of America Golden Medallion Finalist NO CHOICE BUT SURRENDER Winner of the 1987Romantic Times award for Best Historical Romance by a New Writer To Vivian Vincenta Koebel and Anita DiBernardo Kirk, those dear ladies who look out for my father. Thank you! During the Regency period, Parliament standardized titles of the peerage, thus changing the title of marquis to marquess. Those families, however, who had possessed the title of marquis for centuries still retained personal use of that title, and do so to this day, such as the Marquis of Queensbury and the Marquis of Winchester.
