Since she can’t have the man she truly loves, she’ll settle for one who wants her. Someone respectable, boring. However, she craves one more exciting adventure before she accepts a suitor. Knowing her final escapade must be in secrecy, she takes an alter-ego. Posing as Mr. Jamie Poole, she attends boxing matches, going so far as to mentor a young fighter in the art of pugilism. What Lydia doesn’t know is the man she loves has ties to the boxing world, and when he recognizes her disguise, more than a prizefight is at stake. A Hero in Hiding… Richard Lovett, 9th Earl of Tisbury has long avoided marriage. His work as spymaster during the Napoleonic Wars, not to mention his continued work to protect the Crown and England, could put anyone close to him in danger. He’s made a comfortable life out of portraying himself as a lackadaisical, country lord. When he stumbles upon the one woman he’s always loved in a most ridiculous and dangerous disguise, Richard decides not only will he save her but he won’t stand idly by and lose her hand in marriage to some tiresome fop. With both of their reputations on the line, they risk all in the name of love. But Richard can’t run from his past, and those secrets might endanger their future—and their lives. less
