  A small thrill spurred my pulse into a gallop. Finally a chance to do more than shuffle paper. Protecting the mayor’s daughter was an elite assignment. Something I’d almost given up hope of getting because of Renee’s attitude toward my leg.

  Renee set her uneaten triangle of sandwich on her plate. “We want you to go undercover at the stable where she trains.” She tilted her head. “As a groom.”

  “Excuse me?” I had to have heard wrong. Renee wanted me, heiress Alexa Cheltingham, to go undercover mucking out stalls? Just what had she put in her tea?

  Renee studied me, then lifted both eyebrows and a shoulder in a gesture of dismissal. “I told the Governess this wasn’t a good idea, with your leg and all. This will require hard physical work, Alexa. Are you up to the job?”

  I’d never let my “defective” leg stop me from achieving my goals before. I certainly wouldn’t now. If Renee wanted a groom, I could become a groom. “How hard can it be to shovel manure?”
