Romance Historical

Love soothes the deepest of scars.

Spies and Lovers, Book 2

Minerva Bellingham is at her witsโ€™ end. Her younger brother, Simon, will have them penniless and on the streets if his extravagant gambling habit isnโ€™t curtailed. An enormous debt to Lord Rafe Drummond is the final indignity.

Signing over her dowry is their only choice. Until Lord Drummond suggests something much more scandalous. She can keep her dowryโ€”in exchange for the Bellinghams working three months as a housemaid and stable boy.

Scarred from his service to the Crown, Rafe recognizes the young Simon Bellingham has the makings of a good duke. Minerva is a different story. Her pure, delicate beauty only underscores Rafeโ€™s tarnished, bleak soul.

Yet he delights in cracking Minervaโ€™s icy reserve to reveal a fiery, stubborn woman. And Minerva discovers the gruff master of Wintermarsh has the heart of a poet. But before they can find a future safe in each otherโ€™s arms, a menace from Simonโ€™s licentious past slithers back into their lives, forcing Rafe to plan the most important rescue mission of his life.

Warning: Contains a paragon of the beau monde who gets the hang of polishing silver, and a master of the house whoโ€™d like her to make his bedโ€”preferably with him in it. Also passion unleashed with the mere touch of a finger. Readers are encouraged to swoon.
