'One of the most relatable books I've read in a long time, I couldnt put it down.' LOUISE PENTLAND (SprinkleofGlitter)

'Life doesn't get much better than a new Sophie Kinsella novel' RED

In this irresistible historical romance debut, a seasoned spy sets out to rescue the childhood friend he once loved from a reputation-destroying rumor--only to discover that she is actually the source.

After enduring five interminable seasons, Lottie Carlisle has had enough of shallow London society, her boring little life, and her uncle Alfred's meddling. When he demands she accept a proposal by the end of next season or else he will choose a husband for her, she devises a plan: create a scandal shocking enough to make her unmarriageable and spend her spinsterhood far enough away in the countryside where no one will ever recognize her.

Alec Gresham hasn't seen Lottie since he left his childhood friend without a word five years ago. So he's not surprised to find her furious when he appears on her doorstep. Especially bearing the news he brings: her uncle is dying, her blasted reputation is still intact, and Lottie must return home. As they make the journey back to her family estate, it becomes increasingly clear that the last five years hasn't erased their history, nor their explosive chemistry. Can Lottie look past her old heartache and trust Alec, or will his secrets doom their relationship once again?

Fans of Netflix's Bridgerton series will love this enchanting story of a spy disguised as a charming rake who finds himself entangled with the most intriguing bluestocking-from the series that delivers ""both emotional intensity and lush sensuality, and vivacious writing enhanced by ample measures of wit"". (Booklist, Starred Review)

Rafe Davies might seem like just another charming rake, but in reality, he is one of the crown's most valuable agents. As relentless as he is reckless, Rafe has never met a woman he couldn't win or a mission he couldn't complete. And when he encounters the intriguing yet prickly Miss Sylvia Sparrow, while on assignment at a Scottish house party, he's determined to charm her.

Though most women would be thrilled to catch the eye of a tall, dark, and dangerously handsome man, Sylvia is through with that sort of adventure. She trusted the wrong man once and paid for it dearly. The fiery bluestocking is resolved to avoid him, but a chance encounter between them reveals the normally irreverent Rafe's unexpected depths-and a palpable attraction that's impossible to ignore.

Falling in love with Gideon Cross was the easiest thing I've ever done.

It happened instantly. Completely. Irrevocably.

But staying married to him is the fight of my life. Our love is both a refuge from the storm and the most violent of tempests. Two damaged souls entwined as one.

We have borne our deepest, ugliest secrets to one another. Gideon has given me everything. Now, I must prove I can be the shelter for him that he is for me.

Together, we could stand against those who work so viciously to come between us.

Committing to love was only the beginning. Fighting for it will either set us free . . . or break us apart.

Daringly sensual and intensely romantic, this is a love story that will have you glued to the page.
