A London officer goes undercover to expose a plot against
the Crown
Dover, England, 1808: Officer Alexander Moore goes undercover as a
gambling gentleman to expose a high-stakes plot against the
king—and he’s a master of disguise, for Johanna Langley believes
him to be quite the rogue. . .until she can no longer fight against
his unrelenting charm.
All Johanna wants is to keep the family inn afloat, but when the
rent and the hearth payment are due at the same time, where will
she find the extra funds? If she doesn’t come up with the money,
there will be nowhere to go other than the workhouse—where she’ll
be separated from her ailing mother and ten-year-old brother.
Alex desperately wants to help Johanna, especially when she
confides in him, but his mission—finding and bringing to justice a
traitor to the crown—must come first, or they could all end up
dead.
