"[Manda] Collins is a delight" (Elizabeth Hoyt) in the mass-market
edition of this fun and flirty historical rom-com, where an intrepid
female reporter matches wits with a serious, sexy detective--perfect for
fans of Tessa Dare, Enola Holmes, and Netflix's Bridgerton series!
The widowed Lady Katherine Bascomb has little use for the rules of
society--instead, she engages in such "vulgar" activities as managing
The London Gazette and writing about crimes against women. But when
her latest article leads to a suspicious arrest, the attractive
detective in charge of the case is incensed that she's interfered with
his investigation. Only before Kate can make amends, she stumbles, quite
literally, upon another murder entirely.
Detective Inspector Andrew Eversham is appalled that Kate is entangled
in one of his cases--again. Yet when he asks her to kindly keep away,
Kate offers a bargain: She'll refrain from writing about the case--if he
allows her to study his methods. Before long, Eversham can't deny his
attraction to both her beauty and brains. But with a killer lurking in
the shadows, will they learn to trust their instincts, each other, and
the undeniable passion that is blossoming between them before it's too
late?
