Romance Historical
When Will Jones, ex-spy, ex-Bow Street Runner, rescues a
virgin from Archibald March’s notorious London brothel, he
does not expect her to resist his gallantry or escape his
protection, but the tall beauty he knows only as Helen of
Troy has a desperate plan of her own. She believes March’s
brothel conceals secret documents connecting her mother to a
group of radicals plotting against the government.
In the second of the “Sons of Sin” trilogy, Will Jones forms
a most unlikely partnership with Helen as he works to
recover his missing brother from London’s dark underworld.
Through Helen Will uncovers a plot to assassinate the
members of the British cabinet in the aftermath of old King
George’s death while the former Prince Regent lies ill and
unready to lead his country. In this dark time Will and
Helen discover the secrets of a well-guarded brothel and a
slum school that trains boys to be criminals.
Will puts up barriers to all who know him; he’s a realist
who knows London’s darkest secrets; he’s a man with a past,
conscious of his sins and failings. He has no business with
a proper beauty from the highest rung of society, even if
she’s masquerading as the most famous wanton in history.
But he can’t resist Helen’s spunky wit, her courage, or her
beauty. He lets her into the secret world he’s made for
himself in London’s darkest corner, a fantastic apartment in
the old style of Tudor London, hidden in a disreputable
district of brothels and pawn shops.
Will and Helen's story is a classic match up of "bad boy"
hero and "good girl" heroine. He teaches her all the best
ways to be wicked, and she reminds him that goodness and
love are within his grasp after all.
