Book Description

A sensible betrothal leads to secret passion discovered in the dangerous streets of London in the New York Times bestselling author’s Victorian romance. Queen Victoria’s London is a teeming metropolis of pageantry, forbidden desire, and danger—especially in the East End, where a mysterious murderer preys on ladies of the night. What widow Lady Maggie Graham does there provides plenty of grist for the rumor mill. When she agrees to wed the much older Viscount Langdon, there are those who suspect bad intentions—including the man’s nephew, Lord Jamie . . . Experience has taught Lord Jamie well. He has seen his fair share of women behaving inappropriately—enjoying risqué amusements in secret theatres, running about disguised in the seediest parts of the city. Then they call you vile names for coming to their rescue. And no woman is more shameless, more cunning, more intoxicating than Lady Maggie . . .
