Lucy Ellyson, the improper daughter of an infamous spy, saves the life of the Earl of Clifton. He intends to make her his countess after the war ends, but when he finally is able to return to her, he finds that she’s vanished.

Meanwhile, Lucy is living a new life in the heart of Mayfair. But she’s as scandalous as ever, and when Clifton finally happens upon her, she’s landed in the sort of trouble that only a hasty marriage can solve. He’s more than willing to step in, but their future is all too quickly threatened by secrets from the past.

Readers considered this sixth book in the series a let-down…”I felt the book spent way too much time in the flashback (about 50%). That didn’t leave much time for the present and it felt rushed and short. Nothing really happened once the book made it back to the present”

“This is one of those “we used to know each other, fell in love a long time ago, he left, and I had a crappy life” stories. But, instead of filling us in on their back-story a little at a time, a huge chunk of this book is a flashback. That drove me NUTS. She could have told us all we needed to know in a couple of paragraphs, not 200 pages.

Also, I hate that he called “BETRAYAL!” when he came back from war two years later and found out, after not having sent her any letters or anything (just flowers), that she got married. HOW COULD SHE? You left! Ugh!”

”This is all set in Elizabeth Boyle’s Regency World with references to spymaster Pymm, spy Temple (hero of my beloved Stealing the Bride), and Felicity Langley (from Love Letters from a Duke) in a rather unsympathetic portrayal. There are also two hilarious dowagers who come to help the Lady Standons remarry and who will hopefully be in the next two books. Overall: A perhaps too fast-paced romance spy novel with an amazing heroine from the ever-delightful Elizabeth Boyle.”
