Description
THE OFFICER IS A GENTLEMAN
Royal Navy Captain Hugh McAlden will do anything to stop the treasonous flow of information out of the Admiralty, even if it means taking in a slyly attractive street thief to steal those secrets back.
BUT THE LADY IS A TRAMP
Circumstances might have forced Meggs Evans into a life of crime, but she's bound and determined to lift herself out of the gutters even if it means stealing for the wickedly handsome captain. On the trail of a traitor, the undeniable attraction between Meggs and her captain explodes. But when danger ignites their desire, the only thing in danger of being stolen is her heart.

Advance Praise
Publisher Weekly's Top 10 Fall Romance Picks for 2011
"Meggs was a lovely character, outwardly hardened by her years on the street, but with a core of softness inside. She began the book almost feral in her reluctance to trust most people and her transformation felt believable to me. Her protective relationship with Timmy, her twelve year old brother, and her feelings for Hugh touched me and evoked my sympathies. [Essex has] a gift for writing endearing heroines and hot love scenes." -Dear Author
"The Danger of Desire is an intriguing and glorious novel with dazzling characters that solidifies Elizabeth Essex as a great talent." -The Romance Reviews
"There is something distinctive and gorgeous about Ms. Essex's writing--I can't think of any other writer whose prose is as languorously specific as hers. The Danger of Desire ... is a transcendentally pleasurable book to read." -All About Romance
