Synopsis

Lady Cecily wants to live in London, not in the country. However, until her daughter weds, her income will not increase and support her in a grander lifestyle. Lady Cecily schemes to get Vanessa to the altar. Anyone will do! Vanessa Lester fends off her mother's machinations. She isn't interested in marrying just anyone. She wants to lose her heart. But she's too realistic to believe love can happen that way. Then one moonlit night, she's kissed by a wounded smuggler on the run. Suddenly, practical Vanessa finds herself embroiled in a dangerous adventure that could end in her love's hanging. The spice of intrigue in a Regency Romance.
