They were once orphans from London's roughest slums. Now
they are students of Mrs. Merlin's Academy for Select Young
Ladies, learning the techniques of spying and seduction.
Bold, beautiful, and oh-so-dangerous, they are England's
ultimate secret weapons... Hot-tempered and a
warrior to the bone, Shannon is the most daring of "Merlin
Maidens." Her assignment: stop the fiendishly cruel assassin
who is targeting a top British ballistics expert's family.
Marshalling her intelligence, fighting skills, and weapons
is easy. Being forced to work with the rakishly handsome
Russian spy she loathes is something else. Witty,
resourceful, and notorious for his rakish charm with women,
Alexandr Orlov tempts Shannon's fierce reserve and lithe
body to win her trust. But in the remote Scottish castle
where they are sent to protect the innocent, their games of
parry and thrust could end in death. A ruthless enemy is
watching...and planning to turn their passion into the most
dangerous weapon of all.
