Nothing mattered more until Maureen Huxley came along. Years spent hunting his father's murderer through London's dark underworld have honed Henry Thorpe into a deadly blade with one purpose-catching a killer of fathomless evil. But after three seasons and a parade of fickle suitors, Maureen's hopes are fading.
Which means her dreams of marriage, motherhood, part-time cookery, and full-time domestic bliss must be fulfilled elsewhere. Lady Maureen Huxley knows him as Henry Thorpe, her best friend-an irresistibly kissable, strictly platonic friend. Society knows the affable Earl of Dunston for his flashy waistcoats and rapier wit.
