Synopsis: A historical romance set in 1811 England from #1 New York Times bestselling author Catherine Coulter.
To hide from her abusive stepfather, Winifrede Levering Bascombe disguises herself as male valet Jack. She arrives in London with Grayson St. Cyre’s aunts, Mathilda and Maude, to beg his assistance. He welcomes the aunts, briefly spots Jack, and proceeds very quickly after their arrival to fall down the rabbit hole. He catches Jack stealing his horse, Durban; chases her down; and then all sorts of interesting things happen.
Amidst all the laughter, however, there lurks a deadly secret that’s ready to leap out and crush both Jack and Gray. . . .
“Coulter is excellent at portraying the romantic tension between heroes and heroines and she manages to write explicitly but beautifully about sex as well as love.”—Milwaukee Journal
