The light of love glows in the darkness...The desire for revenge sent William Enton, third baron of Landow, into Darktowne to punish those who destroyed everything precious in his life. But this infamous lair of robbers and cutthroats is no place for a gentleman.And when he wakes after being set upon by brigands, a golden-haired angel is tending to his wounds.
They call her "Princess," and royalty she must be, for never has bearing and beauty been so perfectly blended in one woman. But her tender touch masks a hardness born of the streets; she is indeed the princess of thieves -- and answerable only to the brutal kingpin who holds everyone in Darktowne in his sway. Now only a brazen masquerade can keep William alive and bring him closer to this exquisite enchantress. For his mission is suddenly clear: to melt the frozen heart of the lady who has miraculously brought him alive again . . . and to set her free with passion and boundless love.

The popular author of
The Princess and Her Pirate and
The Princess Masquerade returns with another fun and sexy romance.
William Enton, fifth baron of Landow, has sworn revenge on the villains who caused the death of his wife. Drunk and agitated, he ventures into the lawless part of Sedonia to do just that. But the gentry do not belong here; he is soon wounded and unconscious. When he awakes he finds himself in the thief's den. Then an angel appears, with long blond hair that makes him forget his pain and his mission. But she is the princess of thieves, and he soon realises that nothing is as it seems, including the woman he is slowly coming to love.
About the Author
As a child I desperately wanted to be an internationally renowned jockey, dashing across the open heath on Ireland's best pony, soaring over double oxers as if on wings. It was my greatest desire . . . except when I wanted to be a princess or a soldier or the world's first time-traveler.
The bad news is that I've never been a jockey or a princess or a soldier, but I am a time-traveler of sorts. With every book I write I get to spend a little bit of time in another world. I get to experience the joys and terrors of a counter-reality; in a way I guess I have become those other people, and through the magic of literature, I get to take my readers with me. So strap on your hunt caps, mates -- we're going for a ride.
