A Game of Secrets
 |
| New Cover |
Kate Charteris never expected to become a damsel in
distress, yet she becomes just that when she must flee her cousin’s unwanted
attentions.
While she might be alone in
Regency England, her parents deceased and family friends still with
Wellington’s army in Portugal and Spain, she is no damsel who faints at the
first sight of a dragon-like trouble.
On the hunt for the lair of smugglers and spies for
Napoleon, Tony Farraday never expected to fall hard for a damsel not quite in
distress. He collides with Kate on a
city street and feels instant attraction.
Yet Kate must catch the mail coach before it leaves, and Tony still needs
orders from the spycatcher Giles Hargreaves.
Neither expects to meet again at a run-down inn on the
English coast. On a crumbling cliffside,
they vow to keep each other’s secrets and pretend to be strangers.
Yet that initial spark of attraction catches
flame strongly and obviously, jeopardizing their pretense.
When they realize they are in the smugglers’ very
lair, Tony must warn his friend Hargreaves.
