When her beloved father mysteriously disappears, Portia Hadley is determined to discover why . . . even if it means charging straight into the arms of the Earl of Branford.
Known as the "Black Cat" when he was a spy for England, Branford is no stranger to secret missions or mysterious ladies. Branford senses that Portia is not as innocent as her jade-green eyes suggest and a game of cat and mouse begins.
Little does Portia know that Branford has his own secret agenda - one that could ignite a sparking passion . . . and a deadly danger.
