Their love could end a war—or ignite one.
When Mademoiselle Louise de Bonnechoix—Napoleon’s secret daughter—sets out from London to meet the father she has never known, she carries two things with her: a quiet resolve to earn his trust'' and a vial of poison.
Assigned to escort her is Rodrick de Montfort, a man whispered about in drawing rooms and war offices alike. A master of secrets, dishonor, and survival, Rodrick has lived his life in the shadows. But now, he’s offered one last mission that might restore his name. Charming, elusive, and far too observant, Rodrick is the last man she should trust. And yet, he may be the only one who sees the truth behind her careful smile.
Neither knows the other’s true purpose.
Neither expects to fall in love.
But when their missions collide on the eve of Waterloo—amid swirling ballgowns and loaded pistols, they must each choose: duty, or desire—vengeance, or mercy. Betrayal, or the only truth left worth fighting for.
