Life as a lady-in-waiting for Mary Queen of Scots isnât at all what Isabel Tait expected. But she must either tolerate the mindless partying and ceaseless backstabbing of Maryâs other ladies, or risk being sent home to a forced marriage. Sheâd almost rather return to her familyâif not for a certain handsome gentleman who arouses a new desire in her, something sheâs never before experienced. Of course, heâll never notice herâŚ
Gavin Cade is on a mission. Tasked with spying on the Queen, heâs found the perfect woman to help. Sweet, shy Isabel is an easy target for his charms. Before he knows whatâs happened, he is the one beguiled. With the fate of England in the balance, he must keep his plan to expose the treasonous queen a secret, or he will never seduce his sweet English rose.
Because thereâs one thing heâs learned about Isabel TaitâŚsheâs got a backbone of steel and may never forgive him.
