Once burned by her love, he's not fool enough to fall again. But this fiery vixen will not be denied. As they unravel a mystery together, will they find their way back to each other . . . or be lost forever?



The younger son of a viscount and an established London rogue, Christopher Bowden sets out for Paris with only two objectives. Number one: find Meera Hutton. Number two: get away from her as quickly as possible. Christopher vows he will not let the clever, enchanting Meera pull him in and break his heart again.



But when he discovers the plot that has ensnared Meera, his loyalty and duty leave him no choice but to come to her aid.



Surprised to find herself reunited with the man she once loved, headstrong Meera cannot resist the embers of desire burning between them. Having spent the last decade relishing her hard-won independence, Meera is fascinated and confused by the strong connection she has to Christopher. As her life begins to fall apart, she finds herself turning to him again and wondering what her future . . . or their future . . . might hold.
