About the book
No 1 New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Laurens pulls back the curtain on a world that has been hidden from us . . . until now.
Montague has dedicated his life to managing the wealth of London's elite, sacrificing the opportunity to have a family of his own. However, when Miss Violet Matcham seeks his assistance, he is faced with a new challenge both professionally and personally.
Violet, a devoted lady-companion to Lady Halstead, asks Montague to help ensure her ladyship's affairs are in order. To her surprise, Montague is not what she expected - he is compelling, decisive, supportive, and strong, qualities that Violet finds essential in a champion. Montague quickly assumes this role.
When Lady Halstead is murdered, Violet and Montague, along with Barnaby Adair, Inspector Stokes, Penelope, and Griselda, work together to uncover a cunning and cold-blooded killer who is getting closer and closer. Will Montague and Violet discover the truth in time to seize their opportunity for lasting love?
