About the book:
London, 1853.
Despite Lady
Catherine's love of fencing, she needs to stop pretending to be a boy and
fraternizing with men…but not until after the fencing tournament! Her mother
plans to marry her off by the end of the season, so this will be her last
chance to enjoy her freedom. When she impulsively puts her reputation at risk
to save the life of a dashing competitor, all seems lost when he sees through
her disguise, but he vows never to reveal her secret. Thank goodness for
gentlemanly honor!
Daniel,
Marquess of Huntley, wants to overcome the rumors of his father's madness so
that he can be embraced by London society. His plan is to marry the most proper
woman who will have him, and then raise stable, respectable children. He
certainly isn't interested in some hoyden with a penchant for masquerading as a
boy and flaunting society's rules. In fact, he'd prefer to keep his distance.
When an
obsessed suitor discovers Catherine's secret and threatens blackmail, the only
path out of social ruin is marriage. But what kind of protection does matrimony
provide when a vengeful suitor is plotting the ultimate revenge?
