Cheryl Bolen has done it again with another sparkling Regency romance. . .I highly recommend
it. – Happily Ever After
Anna de Mouchet has the stuff of which Regency heroines are made – the right stuff, that
is! – In Print
***
The Marquess of Haverstock is incensed when he learns the money he needed to buy crucial war information for the Foreign Office has been lost at cards to the illegitimate daughter of an English duke and French noblewoman. When the bewitchingly beautiful woman informs him the only way to reclaim the funds is to wed her, he has little choice but to agree.
Shunned by the ton, Anna de Mouchet agrees to a bizarre proposal that has her using her skill at cards to force the marquess – whom she's been told is a traitor – to marry her. As his wife, she will be free to spy on him and prove her patriotism to England. But once she marries the handsome lord, she's less sure of her loyalties. Especially when she feels her husband's silken touch.
