Elite spies, secret defenders of the king, The Royal
Four are unsurpassed in courage, honor, and daring. Known
to his brothers-in-arms as The Falcon, Lord Wyndham is the
most secretive and aloof of the four. But when The Falcon
meets the impetuous Lady Alicia, he discovers a soul mate
whose hidden fire matches his own…
Lady Alicia Lawrence was cast out of
polite society and branded a liar for a youthful mistake.
When she overhears details of a conspiracy that could
affect her country’s fate, she turns to the one person who
might believe her—Stanton Horne, Lord Wyndham. Posing as
Wyndham’s mistress in order to root out the enemy, Alicia
is drawn into an uneasy partnership…and a wildly seductive
liaison.
Lord Wyndham’s uncanny ability to detect lies has made him
a valuable member of the Royal Four, but in matters of
romance it has proven a distinct liability. Alicia is the
only woman whose thoughts he cannot read…and the only one
whose sensual touch quenches every secret desire. As the
mission grows more dangerous and more personal, and each
encounter with Alicia more fiery than the last, this
daring spy must face his greatest challenge yet—learn to
trust the passion in his heart…
