THE SYNOPSIS
An English spy and a debaucherous debutante meet in a French brothel.
On a dangerous mission for the Crown, Captain Anthony Browne narrowly escapes capture by a band of French soldiers when a lovely working lady offers him a most pleasurable cover for his visit to a brothel. Enchanted by his unexpected companion's beauty and wit, the Captain would love nothing more than to take her as his mistress until she slips from his bed without a trace.
Miss Eveline Stuart is well acquainted with secrets. The headstrong niece of England’s spymaster wants nothing more than to prove herself to her uncle, even if it means going as far as pretending to work in a French brothel. Yet she never expects to find one of her uncle’s spies there, nor a night of passion she will never forget…
THE REVIEW
Oh good heavens! That was a cruel tease if a book! Evie and Anthony meet while she is warning him of an ambush, but, of course, it occurs in a French brothel and a hot one night stand ensues! He asks her to be his mistress, but she disappears before he wakes up. He spots her again at an event at The Society of Sin and restrains her for questioning (wink), but Evie escapes and Anthony is furious…the end. Ugh! That was seriously torture. And I loved every minute of it!
