Now in paperback—a novel that “handily fulfills its
promise of intrigue and romance.”(Publishers
Weekly)
Determined to secure another London
season without assistance from her new brother-in-law, Mary
Alsworthy accepts a secret assignment from Lord Vaughn on
behalf of the Pink Carnation. She must infiltrate the ranks
of the dreaded French spy, the Black Tulip, before he and
his master can stage their planned invasion of England.
Every spy has a weakness and for the Black Tulip that
weakness is beautiful black-haired women—his “petals” of the
Tulip. A natural at the art of seduction, Mary easily
catches the attention of the French spy, but Lord Vaughn
never anticipated that his own heart would be caught as
well. Fighting their growing attraction, impediments from
their past, and, of course, the French, Mary and Vaughn find
themselves lost in a treacherous garden of lies.
And
as our modern-day heroine, Eloise Kelly, digs deeper into
England’s Napoleonic-era espionage, she becomes even more
entwined with Colin Selwick, the descendant of her spy subjects.
