Description: "When scandal-weary Beatrice Lacey witnesses an attack, she's forced into hiding with the last man she'd ever choose-a wounded and irritable Bow Street officer. She knows Alexander Rawlings wants nothing more than to return to his investigation, but close quarters and quick-witted sparks make denying their growing connection impossible. As danger closes in, love becomes their most daring risk yet"-- Provided by publisher.
Review Quotes:
"The story maintains a steady pull between suspense and romance, and the emotional payoff feels earned rather than rushed. Readers who enjoy Proper Romance titles with a touch of intrigue will find this an appealing and confident addition to Barker's Bow Street series."
