What a fantastic blend of historical romance and spy thriller! I can't decide what I loved more - the relationship between Hannah Simmons, companion/secret agent, and Robert Killian, Duke/secret agent, or the mystery plot, which has both trying to track down the person responsible for a murder. Hannah and Robert have similar jobs, but report to people who have different views on justice. They each have trauma in their pasts that drive them. These traumas come out and bring them closer as their relationship develops.

The pace is fast and characters are compelling. I truly hope the secondary characters get their own books. This would be a great start for a series!
