When a lady vigilante seeks the help of a dashing yet reclusive lord, an amorous adventure begins in this Regency romance.

A rabble rouser for justice, Lady Sophia Barnes is on a mission to protect the ladies of Madame Hartley's brothel from a mysterious killer. A master of deception and disguise, her fate is in her own hands—along with a loaded gun. All she needs now is instruction on how to shoot it. But only one person can help her: Damien Beecham, Viscount Quint, the man who broke her heart years ago . . .

The last thing Lord Quint needs is an intrusion on his privacy, especially from the beautiful, exasperating woman he's never stopped wanting. A woman with a perilously absurd request, no less! For Damien is fighting a battle of his own—one has secret as his feelings for Lady Sophia. But as Sophie’s beauty and persistence break down his defenses, Quint knows that he will die trying to protect her.

“The romance is delectable as sensual love scenes balance the well-woven mystery subplot.” —Publishers Weekly
