A novel by C N Jarrett
A dead painter's code. A bad leg. And a woman with the audacity to mistake him for the valet.
In this clean Regency romance, a midnight intruder and a sharp-tongued skeptic find themselves bound by a bargain neither expected … and a connection neither can ignore. But can two people built on secrets trust each other enough to find what they’re truly searching for?He has more to hide than she knows ...
Nicholas Scott, younger brother of a baron, has spent weeks confined to Grimsfell Hall, a crumbling Cornish manor lashed by Atlantic wind, nursing an injured leg and a sharper pride. When he wakes in the dead of night to find a fair-haired woman in spectacles calmly rifling through his bedchamber, he is not frightened. He is, for the first time in a very long while, intrigued. The quest she proposes is not without its dangers. The coin she offers is not something he needs. But the peculiar young woman herself? That, he suspects, is another matter entirely.
She can keep this strictly professional ...Millie Metcalfe has a mission and no time for distractions… least of all one with an irritating habit of being right about almost everything. That Mr. Scott requires her assistance is a complication she will manage with perfect composure. The arrangement is merely inconvenient. Merely temporary. Merely the most unsettling thing that has ever happened to her.
As the quest draws them deeper into danger and closer together, Nicholas must choose between the lie he's built and the truth she deserves, and Millie must decide whether letting someone in is worth the risk of being hurt.Miss Metcalfe and the Romantic Blunder is a heartwarming tale of integrity, unexpected devotion, and love found in the most unlikely of places.
