A poor seamstress in 1814 London can use all the help she can get. Sadly, she could not trust him before. What makes this time any different? Then she finds his provision. And it’s worse than she could have imagined. It could get her killed. She needs help to undo her father’s folly. And there is only one person she knows who can. No matter what she does, the risks are enormous. The beautiful seamstress intrigues Lord Warrenby. But a true gentleman does not abuse the defenseless. The young woman at his mother’s favorite modiste threatens his willpower. When his biggest temptation shows up with her impossible quest, he struggles to believe her claim of innocence. Worse yet, she knows his own scandal, one that can ruin others. Who is this beautiful young woman? Is Tessa as virtuous as she appears? He hopes so, because something is growing between them, something that he cannot bear to lose. You’ll love this sweet Regency because there’s more than one secret floating about Warrenby’s London.
