Nothing is more intoxicating or dangerous than surrendering to a devil.
Beatrice Corning, the niece of the present earl, is a proper English miss. But she has a secret: no real man has ever excited her more than the handsome youth in the portrait in her uncle's home. Suddenly, that very man, thought to be murdered years ago, is here in the flesh, luring her into his bed. Half mad after seven years in hellish captivity, Reynaud St. Aubyn has burst into his ancestral home demanding his inheritance. Can this wild-looking man truly be the last earl's heir? Only Beatrice can see past Reynaud's savagery to the noble man inside. But can Beatrice's love tame a man who will stop at nothing to regain his title, even if it means sacrificing her innocence?
For his part, Reynaud is drawn to this lovely lady, even as he is suspicious of her loyalty to her uncle.

"Reynaud may be my favorite hero ever, he was dark, brooding, and tortured; everything you want in a romance hero. Unfortunately I thought the heroine in the story just didn't quite meet the same standard. The story itself was a nice wrap up of everything that happened in the other 3 books and everybody who had it coming got their comeuppance."

— Booklist (starred review)“The kind of powerfully emotional, sensual romance, tinged with fairy tale that readers have come to expect from this gifted storyteller.”
— RT Book Reviews" A must read if you have read the first three in the series, but I liked it least of the bunch. "
— Barbara, 2/8/2014" I just finished reading the whole series of Legend of the Four Soldiers, I love these 4 books this is the 2nd time I have read all 4 of them. I highly recommend reading her series! "
— Penney, 1/10/2014" No woman could resist a sexy English Lord who was held captive by Native American's for 7 years. "
— Lyssa, 12/22/2013" I really can't say how I feel about this book. I liked it don't get me wrong but what was hard was the fact that he was a jerk most of the time. He had his moments but I was just not there till the end of the story "
— Brandy, 11/28/2013" Elizabeth Hoyt has spoiled me for Elizabeth Hoyt. My absolute all-time favorite Hoyt is To Beguile a Beast, and there's just no way any other story in the Four Soldiers series can match it. Don't read this as a pan of Devil, but rather as a recommendation for Beast. "
— Erica, 11/9/2013" Wonderful story and great ending to the Legend of the Four Soldiers. Swoon worthy moment after the carrying Beatrice out of the rain. Only complaint is that I kept having to read the name "Beatrice"...I was hoping he'd come up with some little pet name that was better. "
— Courtnie, 5/11/2013" I really liked this one. I have been pleased with how the Four Soldiers stories has turned out. This is the first series of smut novels I have read since... I don't know when, but I have enjoyed every one of them. "
— Liz, 3/17/2013" Flosnik's narration kept me from enjoying this book. She shouts, she growls, she snarls. Understandable for old men and villains, but the hero?! I won't comment on the author's work because I just couldn't get past Flosnik's unpalatable reading. "
— Diana, 11/7/2012" Disappointed...good story but I was hoping for more from the male character, he wasn't even likeable "
— Brooke, 7/4/2012" Dibanding buku2 sebelumnya, buku ini sangat mengecewakan. Untung aja semua hero dan heroine nya pada kumpul dsini, klo ga, ga akan 3 stars deh "
— Adinda, 5/12/2011" First book I read completely on my kobo ereader. Cool! "
— Carrie, 3/14/2011" Not as good as the rest of the series. A bit of a let down after everything. "
— Melissa, 3/14/2011" It has been a while since I read this, but I do remember that it was a pretty good book. "
— Elaine, 2/5/2011" Much better than I thought it was going to be. But then, I shouldn't be surprised because this entire series was better than I thought it'd be. Read it. It's a good series. "
— Christine, 2/1/2011" A must read if you have read the first three in the series, but I liked it least of the bunch. "
— Barbara, 1/15/2011" A satisfactory conclusion to the four book series. Although, I felt that the character development (especially Reynaud) was a bit uneven. <br/> "
— Laura, 1/8/2011" Audio Version. <br/> <br/>Very good end to a very good series by Ms. Hoyt. audio for the whole series has been great. "
— Nicki, 11/13/2010" Liked this book, but it did take me a bit to finish it. I thought the ending was a bit anti-climactic. But I suppose I don't read these books for their suspicion, intrigue and suspense. "
— Marianna, 9/8/2010" I haven't read the others in this set. Was OK. "
