Summary

James owns a shipping fleet and half a London gaming house and is a ruthlessly effective spymaster. He is seldom self-indulgent...except when it comes to the indomitable beauty who was once his wife.

Laurel gave James her heart - until she saw him perform an act of shocking violence before her very eyes. That night she left her husband.

Now, 10 years later, a chance encounter turns passionate, with consequences that cannot be ignored. They must face common enemies and a very uncommon love.

Nice read

This was a nice book, very predictable and not too exciting but nice and easy.

Nice - BUT …

The book was ok - but not to the standard of the previous books in this series


If one leaves it out one doesn’t miss anything…,

Apart from another great performance from the narrator…
