About the book
Another stunning historical romance from the author of Vixen. Clad in black velvet and posing as a widowed French comtesse, Gabrielle returns to England to ruin the man responsible for her young lover's death. But even becoming an agent for the secret service can't protect her--or her heart--from the devastating Nathaniel.
