Read Finessing the Contessa Storyline:

Lord Robert Forster hopes to meet his match—on the chessboard. He jumps at
the chance to cross rooks with the renowned Sicilian widow Contessa Electra Falzone.
However, the lovely foreigner’s bold opening gambit raises concerns about her politics
when she finds her way into his bedchamber, not with seduction in mind, but to steal
state secrets. Electra Falzone has always avoided scandalous liaisons, until blackmail
forces her to turn thief and risk her reputation in the arms of the handsome Lord
Robert. If her manipulators were threatening only her, she would confess all to her
fellow strategist. But given who will suffer if she fails, she can’t afford to take that
risk. Drawn to the exotic contessa, Rob won’t allow her to be used as a pawn by an
unscrupulous schemer. But if Electra is determined to play this dangerous game for
reasons of her own, nothing Rob can do will stop her. Meet Rob’s siblings in
Compromising the Marquess and Beguiling the Barrister.
