Publisher's Synopsis
What begins as a simple house party...Lady Rowena Freeham is eager for the chance to experience life. That was why she'd made a pact with her friends to leave England for America - for the freedom. Not until an invitation arrives to attend a lavish house party held by the mysterious English spy who was recently honored by the Regency with a baronetcy does she realize that maybe what she's been missing all this time - is love. Becomes so much more. Sir Pierce Rutherford was born a commoner. He had been employed as a groom for Rowena's family where he'd vowed to win the fair lady's heart. But knowing that an earl's daughter would never marry a poor servant, he set out to gain his fortune. After years of toiling in the cotton mills and being no closer to his dreams than before, he finds his salvation working for his country. This house party is his chance to prove his affection. But will everything he's worked for fall into place? Or will Rowena's hand still be impossible to obtain?
