A spy for the crown meets his match when he crosses paths with a beautiful pickpocket in this “racy and romantic” Regency series (Anna Campbell, author of Captive of Sin).
For ten years, Anthony Westfield, Viscount Somerton, hasn't been able to forget the scandalous night of passion he shared with a beautiful, mysterious woman. When their paths cross again, he's shocked to discover Victoria Seaton is an accomplished pickpocket. But Somerton leads a double life of his own. Working undercover for the Queen, he makes Victoria a proposition: pretend to be his mistress or risk ruin.
Victoria can't believe the man who almost destroyed her life a decade ago is now threatening to unravel her secrets. But posing as his mistress at a holiday country party is a game she can play well. For just one look into Somerton's eyes still weakens her with lust. And with Christmas fast approaching, every kiss they share under the mistletoe only makes them fall more deeply in love . . .
