Description
With Napoleon’s spies hidden all over England, no one can be trusted…
1805, England
Six years ago, Willoughby Rossington’s father was murdered while searching for the head of a smuggling ring.
Taken under the wing of his uncle, who is running a counter-intelligence operation against Napoleon’s spies, Willoughby is assigned to take up his father’s last mission—and to avenge his death.
He encounters a young serving woman, Beth, whose resilience against her master’s attempts to break her will strike a chord in him and he reluctantly takes her with him when he leaves town.
But it soon becomes clear that they have a common enemy…
Their two lives become intertwined as they race against the villains that plot to destroy them both.
Will they uncover the truth behind the smuggling ring and find who is responsible for the death of Willoughby’s father? Can they stay safe as they continue to work their way deeper into the mystery?
And, most importantly, will love conquer all? Or will duty and honour come between them?

Beth is a young woman who left an orphanage and was sold to serve drinks and herself at an inn. She is owned by a cruel man and nothing can be done. Willoughby Rossington saves Beth from her situation. Years before, Willoughby's father had been killed while working as a spy against Napoleon. Working under his uncle, he plans to avenge his father. As feelings grow between Beth and Willoughby, the danger intensifIes. Spies are everywhere. Who can you trust? Beth was born beneath Willoughby and no one knows this more than she does. Spies, deceit and intrigue make this a book that should not be missed. I received this book from Net Galley and Sapere Books for a honest review and no compensation otherwise.The opinions expressed are my own.

Although I don't often read historical romances from the Georgian era I really enjoyed this one and I think fans of the genre will absolutely love it. The story is fast paced with the mystery and romantic elements perfectly balanced.
It reminded me very much of a Yorkshire Poldark - but with a rather less brooding hero. The sense of the era, the thrilling action, the unconventional romance and the author's clear love of the setting were all there though. A great book.
