As I hoped, Emily Windsor has given us the love story of Jack, Marquess of Winterbourne! He was a large secondary character in the second novel of this series, Let Sleeping Dukes Lie. I fell for this dashing rouge during that story and knew Windsor would have to create a special lady to capture our Jack’s heart. She did exactly that.

At the tender age of sixteen, Miss Tamsyn Penrose looked the devil in the eye and lived to tell the tale. The problem was her voice was lost to her. Although physically she wasn’t damaged, no words would come out. Six years later and her voice regained, the men of Whitehall need to know what happened the night she encountered the ruthless murderer, La Chauve-Souris, the bat of darkness. Their best man is sent to Cornwall to see what he can retrieve from the young lady’s memory.

Jack has never seduced an innocent, but his charm and good looks usually get him anything he wants. Not with Tamsyn. She knows he’s not visiting her family estate to do business with her father and she fears what she suspects his real motive is.

While Windsor whispers the tale of these two tormented souls, she brings healing and true joy to them that might just last for an eternity. The shadow that hovers over their blooming love is the identity and whereabouts of the villain La Chauve-Souris. He promised Tamsyn he’d return for her someday and she knew he aimed to keep that promise.

Mystery, danger, and discovery fill the pages of this dynamic love story. Bravo Emily Windsor for another fantastic to read!
