Two lovers ... two enemies
They are lovers on opposite sides of a brutal war, with
everything at stake and no possibility of retreat. They can
trust no one—especially not each other. Major Lord Peter Tremayne is the last man rebel bluestocking
Kate Grey should fall in love with, but when the handsome
British viscount commandeers her home, Kate throws caution
to the wind and responds to his seduction. She is on the
verge of surrender when a spy in her own household seizes
the opportunity to steal the military dispatches Tremayne
carries, ensuring his disgrace—and implicating Kate in high
treason. Painfully awakened to the risks of war, Kate
determines to put duty ahead of desire, and offers General
Washington her services as an undercover agent in the City
of Brotherly Love. Months later, having narrowly escaped court martial and
hanging, Tremayne returns to decadent, British-occupied
Philadelphia with no stomach for his current assignment—to
capture the woman he believes betrayed him. Nor does he
relish the glittering entertainments being held for General
Howe’s idle officers. Worse, the glamorous woman in the
midst of this social whirl, the fiancée of his own dissolute
cousin, is none other than Kate Grey herself. And so begins
their dangerous dance, between passion and patriotism,
between certain death and the promise of a brave new future
together.
