Frederick, the Marquess of Stratham, is determined that his war injury will not prevent him from doing all he can to prevent an invasion from the French. What he does not expect is for his endeavors to throw a young lady directly into his path! When a Lady Georgina is pulled from her carriage by an unknown assailant, Frederick has no choice but to promise to protect her.
Lady Georgina has never had so much enjoyment during the London season! Bored with her mother’s ongoing expectations for her and quite determined to do as she pleases, she refuses to step quietly back from the incident. Dogged in her determination, she pursues the Marquess with the intention of discovering the truth, only to find herself tied in the most inextricable mystery….as well as a growing affection for the Marquess himself.
