Gillie Trewlove knows what a stranger’s kindness can mean, having been abandoned on a doorstep as a baby and raised by the woman who found her there. So, when suddenly faced with a soul in need at her door—or the alleyway by her tavern—Gillie doesn’t hesitate. But he’s no infant. He’s a grievously injured, distractingly handsome gentleman who doesn’t belong in Whitechapel, much less recuperating in Gillie’s bed . . .
Being left at the altar is humiliating; being rescued from thugs by a woman—albeit a brave and beautiful one—is the pièce de résistance to the Duke of Thornley’s extraordinarily bad day. After nursing him back from the brink, Gillie agrees to help him comb London’s darker corners for his wayward bride. But every moment together is edged with desire and has Thorne rethinking his choice of wife. Yet Gillie knows the aristocracy would never accept a duchess born in sin. Thorne, however, is determined to prove to her that no obstacle is insurmountable when a duke loves a woman.

“In this tantalizing story, Kate Reading’s evocative narration captures the drama and contrasts of common life and high society in 1870s London…Reading’s spirited portrayal of Trewlove conveys her fierce independence but also her private, more feminine, side, which is aroused by Thorn’s attentions. Reading fans the increasing attraction between the two with seductive tones, dramatic pacing, and crisp articulation that adds spice to the love scenes. Reading’s pitch variations and assortment of English accents bring out the story’s wide range of characters and the distinctions between the social classes. A scintillating listen. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
