(Tudor Rose Book 3)

 

Feisty orphan Pippa de Lacey lives by wit and
skill as a London street performer. But when her sharp tongue gets her into
serious trouble, she throws herself upon the mercy of Irish chieftain Aidan
O'Donoghue.

Pippa provides a welcome diversion for Aidan as
he awaits an audience with the queen, who holds his people's fate in her hands.
Amused at first, he becomes obsessed with the audacious waif who claims his
patronage.

Rash and impetuous, their unlikely alliance
reverberates with desire and the tantalizing promise of a life each has always
wanted—but never dreamed of attaining.
