What is a Victorian lady's formula for love? Mix one brilliant
noblewoman and her enigmatic protection officer. Add in a measure of
danger and attraction. Heat over the warmth of humor and friendship, and
the result is more than simple chemistry--it's elemental.
Lady Violet is keeping secrets. First, she founded a clandestine
sanctuary for England's most brilliant female scientists. Second, she is
using her genius on a confidential mission for the Crown. But the
biggest secret of all? Her feelings for protection officer Arthur
Kneland.
Solitary and reserved, Arthur learned the hard way to put duty first.
But the more time he spends in the company of Violet and the eccentric
club members, the more his best intentions go up in flames. Literally.
When a shadowy threat infiltrates Violet's laboratories, endangering her
life and her work, scientist and bodyguard will find all their theories
put to the test--and learn that the most important discoveries are those
of the heart.
