Against the glamorous backdrop of Victorian high society,

All Grace Gauthier ever wanted was the security of a good marriage, family, and home. Instead, despised by her aristocratic father’s family because of her mother’s foreign birth, she’s taken a “safe” position as a governess. Now, unprotected and alone in London, accused of the shocking murder of her employer, she has no one to turn to. Grace goes to a London gentlemen’s club in search of a man who knew her father. Instead of finding the family friend, she encounters—mysterious—and possibly dangerous—Lord Ruthveyn.

A dark-eyed Lucifer, Ruthveyn, is a part-Indian war hero who guards his secrets carefully. His shadowed past is a source of pain and rumors—only whispered, agrees to help her prove her innocence by using his connections to thwart the efforts of the most determined investigators. Grace’s plight, which echoes his own—moves him as does her quiet beauty. . Ruthveyn is determined to save Grace by unmasking a killer. But his growing passion places his own heart at risk. .

The vibrant attraction between the two is complicated by Ruthveyn’s psychic visions and his inability to “read” Grace’s future. Grace’s tenacity, wit, and compassion make her a very believable, multidimensional character and the perfect match for Ruthveyn’s brooding and dark secrets. The romance sizzles, its unpredictability propelling this complex story far beyond its contemporaries.
