Description
'An enchanting love story with a fierce, complex heroine and a swoon worthy hero. The Luna sisters have arrived . . . and the London season will never be the same' Adriana Herrera, USA Today bestselling author of A Caribbean Heiress in Paris
'A charming read with major Elizabeth and Darcy vibes!' Lana Ferguson
A forbidden love between a Mexican heiress and a shrewd British politician makes for a tantalizing Victorian season.
Ana Maria Luna Valdes has strived to be the perfect daughter, the perfect niece, and the perfect representative of the powerful Luna family. So when Ana Maria is secretly sent to London with her sisters to seek refuge from the French occupation of Mexico, she experiences her first taste of freedom far from the judgmental eyes of her domineering father. If only she could ignore the piercing looks she receives across ballroom floors from the austere Mr Fox.
Gideon Fox elevated himself from the London gutters by chasing his burning desire for more: more opportunities, more choices. For everyone. Now, as a member of Parliament, Gideon is on the cusp of securing the votes he needs to put forth a measure to abolish the Atlantic slave trade once and for all - a cause that is close to his heart as the grandson of a formerly enslaved woman. The charmingly vexing Ana Maria is a distraction he must ignore.
But when Ana Maria finds herself in the crosshairs of a nefarious nobleman with his own political agenda, Gideon knows he must offer his hand as protection . . . but will this Mexican heiress win his heart as well?
'Its two protagonists [are] as fiery and intractable as the best romance novel matches are... vitally alive' Entertainment Weekly
'Truly a delight! A breath of fresh air in the landscape of historical romance' Sophie Jordan
'The perfect blend of romance and intrigue' Alicia Thompson
