Miss Lindsey Crompton, the season's wealthiest heiress, is captivated by detective work, particularly when it leads her to Thane Parker, the enigmatic Earl of Mansfield. Thane embodies contradictions—a war hero with a scandalous reputation and a caring guardian. As Lindsey delves into his potential involvement in a string of murders, she finds herself trapped by his blackmail into an unexpected betrothal, blending intrigue with romance in a thrilling narrative.

"Her wealth and beauty have made Miss Portia Crompton the catch of the season. Secretly determined to wed the maharajah's son she left behind in India, Portia ignores the money-hungry bucks who ply her with bouquets and bonbons. But one suitor will not be deterred: Colin Byrd, Viscount Ratcliffe. He is persistent and presumptuous - and wickedly tempting. Colin has no delusions about romance. He's a rogue, a womanizer, and a murderer, and seduction comes as easily to him as breathing. Portia's fortune is an irresistible lure until Colin's mercenary scheme hits a snag. Winning her dowry is no longer enough - he wants her heart and her passion. The more adamant she is in her refusal, the more determined he is to seduce her."--Publisher
