Lady Lucy Chance is on a mission—earl’s daughter notwithstanding, she is going to change Britain’s justice system forever.
Which is why she’s protesting in a court room. That is rare for a lady of her class, and she’s not the only one to acknowledge that. What she doesn’t expect is for the judge to ‘reward’ her ostentatious dissent by giving her personal custody of her own criminal: a Mr. Bernard Dixon who’s too charming for his own good and surely a bounder to boot.
In fact, Mr. Bernard Dixon is no criminal—he’s a spy infiltrating Britain’s prisons to gain information for his handler, who inexplicably hasn’t arrived to save him. But that’s fine, because now he’s living with the Earl of Lindow and his remarkably beautiful daughter.
All Lucy has to do is reform the ‘criminal’ into a polite member of Society—and not fall in love with Bernard. All Bernard has to do is not let slip that he’s a spy—and not fall in love with Lucy.
But as passions rise and secrets become mingled with half-truths, danger comes to Lucy’s door and Bernard has to make a choice between facing his past and revealing that he might just be in love with her, after all…
And after a shock betrayal, will Lucy give him a chance?
This novel continues the highly anticipated Chance family drama, with sixteen cousins and triple the problems. Tropes include: mistaken identity, secret identity, spies, found family, secrets and lies, reverse Pygmalion, and of course, Emily E K Murdoch'''s tried and true method of sizzling, joyful romance.
This full-length novel is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after and no cliffhangers. It is part of a series that can be read in any order.
