Since her father’s disappearance, Charity Abercrombie has become responsible for her family’s welfare. When Charity is offered a London season, she reluctantly decides to accept. Her plans are shaken when a stranger, Dominic Castille, falls from a tree to land at her feet. Who is this intriguing man claiming he was a captain in the Spanish military, and why is he spying on her friend’s home? To Charity’s alarm and delight, he follows her to London. Even as she meets other handsome and more suitable gentlemen, Charity’s heart returns repeatedly to the mysterious captain and his dangerous secrets. When an act of heroism nearly ends Dominic’s life, Charity knows she must find the answers before it is too late!
