An Inconvenient Duty

Genre(s): Romance | Historical
Total pages: 107
Miss Francesca Vale arrives in London determined to survive the expectations of the Season. An heiress of considerable fortune and even keener intellect, she has no desire to be displayed, courted, and claimed like a prize on the Marriage Mart. Her ambitions lie elsewhere—in reform, in responsibility, and in proving she is far more than an ornament. Independence, however, comes at a cost.
When troubling irregularities surface within her estate accounts, Francesca is forced to question the integrity of a man she has trusted all her life—her solicitor, Thomas Kendall. Now moving within radical political circles, Kendall speaks of progress and reform… yet his influence stretches into shadows where persuasion begins to resemble something far more dangerous.
Major Arch Manners, a soldier employed by the Crown in a secret capacity, is tasked with escorting Francesca in Society. What begins as a reluctant duty soon becomes something far more complicated, for Francesca is no bird-witted heiress. The more Arch observes, the more he suspects she may be unknowingly entangled in a growing conspiracy.
