Secrets, Lies and Scandal...

Selina Rosewall had given up on love, but while helping her brother further his merchant fleet business, she meets Sir James Mitchell, Lord of Penventen. Their attraction is mutual, but what James wants from the relationship goes further--much further--than Selina could have expected. And she learns that in the world of the Ton, scandal and deceit are commonplace.

For James, it's hard to say which is more dangerous: being a spy or being considered husband material by the Ladies of the Ton. With political machinations threatening to draw England into the violent wake of the French Revolution, the last thing James expected was to fall in love with the daughter of an untitled seafaring family. But when his investigation stirs up a hornet's nest, can he protect Selina from danger that threatens her very life?
