內容簡介

  他們在昏暗的走廊上第一次接吻。白映莎完全不知道那是怎麼回事。英俊富有的石安桐當然不可能對她懷有浪漫情感,那只是為了引開咄咄逼人的武裝警衛,以免被人發現他們擅闖禁地。畢竟,任何男人都不可能覺得衣著樸素、戴著金邊眼鏡的白映莎稱得上迷人的女子。他們唯一的共通之處是:孜孜不倦地打探賀歐文的私事。儘管目標相同,他們卻有各自不同的動機。只是,映莎與安桐都沒料到,要冒多大的險才能將壞人繩之以法,而越來越炙熱的合作關係也遠遠超過他們的預期。兩人同樣熱愛刺激與冒險,映莎不只挑起安桐的好奇,更挑起他的熱情......

The first kiss occurred in a dimly lit hallway on the upper floor of Elwin Hastings's grand house. Louisa never saw it coming. . . .

Of course, Anthony Stalbridge couldn't possibly have had romantic intentions. The kiss was an act of desperation, meant to distract the armed guard who was about to catch the pair in a place they most definitely did not belong. After all, in her dull maroon gown and gold-rimmed spectacles, Louisa Bryce was no man's idea of an alluring female. Clearly, the only thing a catch like Anthony Stalbridge had in common with a wallflower like Louisa was a passionate interest in the private affairs of Mr. Hastings - a prominent member of Society whom they both suspect of hiding terrible secrets. Now, thrown into each other's arms by their ruse, Anthony and Louisa are united in their efforts to find the truth.

Each has a personal reason for the quest. Months earlier, Anthony's fiancee threw herself into the Thames - or at least, that is the version whispered in London's social circles. Anthony believes someone else may have had a hand in her death - and a murderous one at that. Louisa, whose own identity is shrouded in layers of mystery, is convinced that Hastings has a connection to a notorious brothel. When Anthony successfully cracks Hastings's hidden safe and discovers highly incriminating evidence, it appears that both their instincts were correct.

But Hastings is hiding far more than jewels and ledger books. Bringing him to justice will be more perilous than Louisa and Anthony anticipate - and their partnership will be more heated than either expects. For the two share a thrilling attraction to danger, and it is not only Anthony'scuriosity that Louisa arouses.
