Publisher's summary

Desperate times lead to hasty vows... A gripping regency mystery for fans of Eve Chase, Louise Douglas and Tracy Rees.

For better. For worse.

For the sake of her future.

London 1815. Jenny's father is dead. She needs to marry immediately to save her and her mother's livelihood.

A chance meeting presents the perfect candidate in the form of the enigmatic Erasmus Black. Gentleman, merchant, and if the rumours are to be believed, captain...

But where does Erasmus slip away to in the dead of night? What secrets about her father's business has he discovered? And was their meeting really just a convenient coincidence?

Guided by her unique intuition, Jenny must seek the hidden forces in play to unravel a sinister web of corruption...without getting trapped herself.

Fantastic historical regency fiction

This is a great story, well performed.

Rebecca Hardy has a way of working the characters into your heart. You care what happens to them. You fall in love with some, while you hate the villians (and even a few suprises there!).

Her mysterious candidate for the emergency husband is just the right balance of the perfect find, yet too good to be true, and thus the added tension of how their relationship will wind up. You can take nothing for granted.

Add to this wonderful touch-and-go romance, a much larger story of murder and intrigue, and the very real history of human trafficking, and this story kept me listening to the very end -- and wanting another story when I finish.

This story is highly recommended for readers of historical mysteries and great love stories.
