Can Grace save Henri’s life … or is she destined only to lose her heart?
Georgian England
Grace Dovercourt never thought she’d find herself the subject of gossip — or that she’d ever fall in love. Her existence blighted by a secret that sets her apart from other women, she lives quietly and expects little from life.
But her settled life is turned upside down overnight when she discovers Henri Rousselle hiding in one of her outbuildings — and at death’s door.
Living alone but for her faithful maid, Grace’s reputation is at stake. But she can’t just let the Frenchman die … and before she knows it, she’s in over her head. If Henri is to have a chance, she must turn renegade and hold the authorities at bay.
