** spoiler alert ** WHAT IT'S ABOUT
A traitor with a deadly plan. Two agents sent to expose his identity before he strikes. But danger is closer than they think . . .

MY TAKE
What a fun story! I've read several of Bellon's contemporary military romantic suspense stories and really enjoyed them. This was the first historical of hers and wasn't disappointed.

Lady Alice has decided she's not interested in marrying. And once you realize she's a trained spy, working under the order of her father (a duke), I understood. What man in her time would care for a wife as capable and intelligent as she, when all he'd want is a nice dowry and a pretty (and quiet) lady on his arm.

So you can understand why Christian, recently home from the war and having lost his older brother and should have inherited the title. When he first enters society upon his return, he's faced with a very inquisitive woman. He warns her to take care when she follows a man she wishes to question. Then someone takes a shot at her. Or is it him?

A wonderful mystery ensues with both Alice and Christian working together ... and falling in love.

I listened to the audiobook, and the narrator did a great job!
