Spies and Secrets 02 - Daring the Duke

For years dire circumstances forced Audrey Kendrick to lead a dangerous double life as London's most legendary thief. Finally free, she has escaped her past -- or so she believes, until a family crisis draws her back. But one man is more determined than ever to bring her to justice -- and the dashing, somewhat notorious Duke of Marston has set the perfect trap. A daring duke who always catches his prey ... A gentleman spy, Stephen Chalmers is as close as a kiss to unmasking the brazen thief who has long been the scourge of the London ton. He suspects the spirited Miss Kendrick of being the infamous Hermes, but the duke never dreamed that, by keeping the remarkable lady near, he would himself fall victim to her sensual charms. Laying Audrey's mysteries bare will only place his own dangerous secrets -- and his heart -- in jeopardy. For there is peril in the passion that enflames them both ... and no risk is greater than love.
