Gabriel Howard, Duke of Crawfordmuir, had a fairytale marriage. His beautiful French wife was witty and charming-definitely the envy of all of Gabrielβs friends. She was also a spy for the army of Napoleon. Once exposed, she fled England, leaving Gabriel alone and bitter, determined never to wed again or even to put his trust in any woman.
After nearly half a dozen years of mourning the loss of his love and his innocence, Gabriel has finally begun to live again. He accepts an invitation from an old family friend, Lady de Grey, to come and stay at Greylings where he meets Evaline Dwyer who is working at cataloging the immense de Grey library. Evaline is a girl of such intelligence and spirit that Gabriel easily falls in love with her though he will not admit it.
When their passion deepens, Gabriel thinks that a second marriage might not be a bad thing, though he stubbornly resists committing his heart. And it seems he is right to when information comes to him that Evaline is not the spotless flower she seems.
Who is the betrayer? And how can Gabriel discover the truth and make things right for himself and Evaline? Will he even try?
Warning!This ebook contains explicit scenes of passion and desire. For adult eyes only!!!
