To trust is to risk everything.

Miss Rosalie Leclerc has survived by wit, nerve, and an iron refusal to belong to anyone. But when her dangerous brother escapes from prison, dragging her past into the open, independence is no longer an option. Hunted and running out of time, Rosalie is forced to rely on the last man she wants at her side.

Lord Rupert Milnes is a fellow agent of the Crown—confident, infuriating, and determined to protect her at all costs. Rupert lives by order and restraint, yet the moment Rosalie enters his life, every rule he relies upon begins to unravel. As the same enemy hunts them both, keeping Rosalie safe becomes more than duty, it becomes everything.

With danger closing in and whispers threatening scandal, trust becomes a perilous gamble. Loving Rupert could cost Rosalie her freedom, while claiming her may demand Rupert sacrifice everything he once believed in—forcing them both to choose between safety and a love that was never part of the plan.
