A Duke Is Always Dangerous by Rebecca Leigh

Abigail Bailey longed for adventure. After living a sheltered life as the daughter of a vicar in the small village of Somerset, the excitement of London called to her. While traveling to McDonough Castle in Scotland after the death of her father to visit her lifelong friend Emma, she inadvertently crosses paths with ex-spy Camden Davenport, Duke of Stafford. Camden was handsome, mysterious, and unlike any man she had ever met before, but she was not prepared for the risky escapade they were about to embark upon, and it makes her question whether she has the strength to endure it, not to mention the power to withstand the charms of her new guardian. When Miss Bailey overhears a plot that puts both of their lives in danger, Cam finds the attractive young lady thrust upon him, and in order to keep her safe, they must embark upon a journey that will test both of their limits. Cam's attraction to Abigail only grows stronger the more time he is with her and when a dangerous villain from his past threatens them both, he realizes how far he will go to keep her safe. A love story filled with passion, peril, intrigue, and espionage. This London season will be filled with more than just balls, gossip, and Lady Weatherby's bad poetry, because A Duke is Always Dangerous, especially when the woman he loves is threatened.
