Only one other book has affected me so strongly, and that too was written by this author (My Lady of Deception). Christi Caldwell puts her heart and soul into the world and characters she creates. The emotion is real, the characters believable, and her stories fresh and unique. As you read her words, it’s so easy to visualize the scenes playing out before you, and you are drawn into their world, hearing their voices, and feeling each and every emotion. And in “The Vixen”, so much emotion!Connor Steele and Ophelia Killoran are like no other couple. As children they struggled through their fears on the streets of St. Giles, their paths crossing briefly, and each time one reaching out in a single gesture rescuing the other. The final time, his sacrifice, saving her. And then... “he was there, always, buried in her mind”.
They meet again as adults, each carrying with them hidden memories of the monsters and secrets of their past. Connor, rescued by the Earl of Mar and now one of London’s top investigators, is determined to rid London of the evil and brutality he has known and seen. Ophelia, a child of the evil Mac Diggory, has survived the fear and pain of living under his power, and now a strong, beautiful woman, she strives to save other children from the streets. They’re alike in many ways due to what they experienced in their young lives. Upon meeting again and as the bond grows, they will need to overcome guilt they carry, doubts of who they’ve become, and learn to trust each other.
Ophelia and Connor’s story was heart wrenching and beautiful. A story of love between a man and a woman, as well as a strong powerful love of family, I can’t put into words how exceptional this book is, and highly recommend it. Brilliant!

Christi Caldwell continues to amaze!
Ophelia Killoran – the tough street rat with a will to survive and no love for the peerage.
Connor Steele – the orphan who got away from the streets and given a better life.
Their lives took different paths, but fate has thrown them together again.
Ms. Caldwell puts a depth to her characters that is unparallel. The Vixen is no exception. As she peeled away the layers of Ophelia and opened Connor’s eyes to reality, my heart ached. And the prison palm reading….I BAWLED! I don’t think a scene has ever affected me as much as this one. Throw in a few surprises, extraordinary secondary characters and you have a 5+ read.
I can’t wait to see how Ms. Caldwell tops this one.
It is not often that I sit and cry while reading a "romance" story. Well, Christi Caldwell pulled out all the bells and whistles in The Vixen. We have Connor, a street boy who was rescued by Ophelia when they were children, and then years later he returned the favor to Ophelia. Connor was adopted by a nob after offering himself up to save the young girl from Newgate. Ophelia never forgot him! She was the daughter of the meanest, most brutal man ever. She suffered mental and physical abuse, she was broken.
This story is about how these two people meet again years later. What is incredible about this particular story is the abject pain and suffering these people live through. Their childhood haunts them. Connor deals with his pain by investigating situations for the rich. Ophelia by saving youngsters from the street...but it isn't until they are both faced with the very worst that life can hand them that they are both saved. This is a story of depravity, loss, forgiveness and pure love. I believe this book is a cut above all others. A read that will tear you up a bit as you suffer along with these characters, and then bring you joy as they find happiness.
The Vixen
Another fantastic story from the queen of regency, ChristiCaldwell. Ophelia & Connor’s story takes you on a journey from when they are kids surviving on the harsh streets of London, who save each other and where debts are paid. To when the investigation into a missing child brings them together as adults. To say you are put through an emotional wringer is no understatement. Both are shocked to see each other & what each have become in adulthood. Ophelia, middle sister to Devils Den proprietor Broderick Killoran, who ventures into the dark, dangerous streets at night to rescue vulnerable children. Connor, who was adopted by a powerful Earl & become a respected investigator. He is hired by a lord to look into his son’s disappearance, long ago thought killed in a fire that claimed his mother blamed on the Lord. Though his investigation he crosses paths with Ophelia who is pushed into society by her brother to make a match with a man of station. They each find long ago feelings for one another are brought to the surface, they fall in love. Connor’s adopted father does not approve of Ophelia & wants Connor to wed his widowed, penniless goddaughter. This is the most emotionally charged part of the book. If you want to know how it ends please read this fantastic story, be prepared to use a box of Kleenex though!I cannot recommend this book enough, just when I think Christi can’t get better she delivers another amazing story, her best book yet. Remember love always prevails.
