WHEN OLD DECEPTIONS LEAD TO NEW DESIRES

Ross Carlisle, Earl of Spalding, has dedicated his life to serving his country. When he discovers secrets that could endanger England, he's forced into an impossible situation--commit treason and race to London to clear his name before the crown turns against him. He's prepared to abandon everything he possesses in order to protect England, including his life...until he crosses paths with a woman who's keeping her own secrets.

Ten years ago, Grace Alden fled the only life she'd ever known in order to protect her son, only to come face-to-face with that past when Ross collapses on her doorstep. They strike a deal--she'll help him travel to London if he helps her reclaim her son's inheritance. But as old deceptions turn into new desires, will they be willing to sacrifice everything they hold dear in order to protect the people they love?
