Kristin Vayden takes you straight to the heart of Regency England in this sparking tale of an earl determined to clear his name and the lady who shows him exactly who he is...
Collin Morgan, Earl of Penderdale, has a problem. Someone is committing crimes in his name, leaving him suspended from his work in the War office.
Elizabeth Essex has a secret. She's the daughter of a well-respected professor at Cambridge University-and a professor herself. If anyone other than the few women she teaches found out, it could ruin her family's good name.
Morgan's travels to track his impersonator lead him to Cambridge, and to an old friend-Elizabeth's father. Forced into close proximity with each other, Morgan and Elizabeth's first impressions are less than friendly. But when Elizabeth's secret comes to light and Morgan's confrontation with his adversaries reaches a fever pitch, they must work together. Along the way, they might learn that what they needed most was each other.

A reluctant duke who'd rather be writing scholarly papers
A lady with a unique and scandalous secret
The tempting chemistry between them they can no longer deny

Lord Rowles Haywind has always shied away from the spotlight of his brother's dukedom, worried it would bring too much attention to the family secret. His mother suffers from mental illness, and he dreads that he may turn out to have it to, or worse, that any children he may have will inherit her disability. Now that the title of Duke belongs to him, he has more responsibility than he ever dreamed of. He needs help, but he's not sure he can trust anyone enough. Until he reconnects with Lady Joan Morgan...
Lady Joan's penetrating insights reassure Rowles as no one ever has. But she has a secret of her own that would cause a terrible scandal. She longs to tell Rowles the truth about her work for the war office, but she's afraid it'll ruin the connection they've kindled. But the longer she waits to tell him, the worse the outcome could be for them both once the truth is out...
