O knihe

London, 1853 - Lady Catherine and Alexander Gray share a passion… because Catherine IS Alexander Gray!

Catherine is a lady now, and that means she needs to give up her secret life of fencing. She can't keep pretending to be a boy and fraternizing with men, but before she does, she's determined to win the upcoming fencing tournament and have her nom de guerre engraved on the traveling trophy. Her mother plans to marry her off by the end of the season, so this will be her last chance to enjoy her freedom. When she impulsively puts her reputation at risk to save the life of the dashing marquess, he sees through her disguise.

Can the Mad Marquess find a bride?
Daniel, Marquess of Huntley, wants to be embraced by London society, but to do that, he needs to quash the rumors of his father's madness. He plans to marry the most proper and well-connected woman he can find so they can raise stable, respectable children with stainless pedigrees. He certainly isn't interested in some hoyden with a penchant for masquerading as a boy and flaunting society's rules. In fact, he'd prefer to keep her at a distance.

It comes down to a question of honor…
When a penniless earl uncovers Catherine's secret and blackmails her, the only path out of social ruin is marriage, but to whom? She soon learns that matrimony provides little protection when a vengeful suitor is plotting the ultimate revenge.
