Olivia Bevelstroke, the only daughter of the Earl of
Rudland, is beautiful and has a sizable dowry. Yet at the
age of twenty-one she is still unmarried, causing people to
whisper behind her back, "What is she waiting for? A
prince?" But Olivia isn't cold or stuck up, ans neither is
she a hopeless romantic. She's just waiting for
something...or someone...

Sir Harry Valentine, a war veteran, is now back in London
working in secret for the War Office and keeping an eye on
his wayward younger brother. Rumor has it that he killed his
fiancee, which intrigues Olivia. She thinks her new
next-door neighbor looks the part, and even if he isn't a
murderer, he's certainly up to something.

Then a real-life Russian prince comes to town, sparking
intrigue. He has his eye on Olivia, but so does Harry, who's
been ordered to spy on the prince--and thus by extension,
Olivia. But will what he finds out about her bring her
closer to his heart?
