Yvette takes on a position as a companion to a sickly lady to hide from the French agents seeking to kill her. Gregory is eager to do what he can for his government and vows to keep Yvette safe. When a plan is devised to draw out the killer, can these two work together?

We met our heroine in the previous book. She has done what she needed to do to survive in the French court, and now she is on the run. her patience is sorely tried in the Carrolton household, but she manages to put people in their place when they test her too far. She is not a lady to be overlooked.

Gregory took a while for me to warm up to. He was nice, eager to do his duty, but he came across as lukewarm in his interactions with Yvette.

I really enjoyed seeing all of the previous main characters come together in this book. The entire cast was fun. The plot moves at a good pace.

I would recommend this series to fans of Regency romance. ( )
