A Lady with a Questβ¦
Cressida Mandeville agrees to Lord Croftonβs vile proposal, but secretly she has other plans. She will trick the loathsome man, find her fatherβs hidden wealth, and save her family from ruin. All goes well, until a daring highwayman stops their carriage, whirls Cressida up onto his dark horse, and demands a kissβ¦.
Β A Duke with a Conscienceβ¦Tristan Tregallows, Duke of St. Raven, doesnβt plan to rescue a damsel in distress, but he can hardly leave an innocent in Croftonβs power. One kiss confirms his prisonerβs innocence, but instead of grateful, she is furious. When he discovers that Cressida is on a quest, one that will take her into the darkest parts of Regency society, St. Raven knows he must become her partner and protector. But he doesnβt expect the dangers to his heartβ¦.
