Alexandra Ward is the perfect image of a wealthy woman; however, she finds London filled with danger, and Lord Thorpe may not help her because he has suspicions of his own about the woman that was once thought to be dead. A fan favorite from New York Times bestselling author Candace Camp, originally published in 2000.
Lord Thorpe&;s new business partner is not what he expected. With her billowy black hair and creamy skin, Alexandra Ward is stunningly beautiful, brashly outspoken&;and the perfect image of a wealthy woman long thought dead.
Straight from America, Alexandra finds London fraught with danger. Her appearance on Thorpe&;s arm sends shock rippling through society and arouses hushed whispers: is she a schemer in search of a dead woman&;s fortune, or an innocent caught up in circumstances that she doesn&;t understand?
Someone knows the truth, someone who doesn&;t want Alexandra to live long enough to learn anything. Only Lord Thorpe can help her now&;if he can overcome his own suspicions.
