Eloise Delacroix, a spy masquerading as a courtesan, is determined to do whatever is necessary to protect England and to prove that women deserve a place within the Foreign Office. When her career in espionage is compromised by her target, Lord Ronan Tomar, she blackmails him into acting as her protector.

Lord Ronan Tomar wants nothing to do with the trivial life of the aristocracy. He would rather spend his time on the bow of a ship exploring the unknown. But the unruly courtesan who has taken the reins of his social life is intent upon making him society’s darling and using his family as leverage.

However, neither can fight the growing attraction and when their newfound love is on the line, Eloise is left with a choice between doing what is right for England and doing what is right for her heart.
