Synopsis

Amanda Bartlett, widowed Countess of Kingston, is a woman beyond reproach. Married at nineteen, she dutifully provided the Earl with an heir and a spare before his death three years ago. Since then, Amanda has lived a simple, quiet life—a life that, if she were honest, has become more than a trifle dull. So when an adventure literally drops into her lap, in the shape of a mysterious book, she intends to make the most of it—especially if it brings her closer to a charismatic stranger... Major Langley Stanhope, an intelligence officer and master mimic known as the Magpie, needs to retrieve the code book that has fallen into Amanda’s hands. The mistaken delivery has put them both in grave danger and in a desperate race to unearth a traitor. But it’s also stirred an intense, reckless attraction. Langley believes the life he leads is not suitable for a delicate widow, but it seems he may have underestimated the lady’s daring—and the depths of their mutual desire.

A rather dull man (it's literally......more

Goodreads review by Hannah

Sometimes you start a book and five minutes in you realize that it’s absolutely not for you but it’s #2 in a series and need to read it for plot reasons 🥴 The relationship itself was fine, but I wasn’t a fan of the heroine or her situation. She let everyone else manage her and I just despise dead hus......more

Goodreads review by Maja

MYSTERY AND INTRIGUE COUPLED WITH ROMANCE With the first book in this series I expressed my disappointment that the 'spyness' of the book was practically non-existing. It seems that Craig had it all bottled up for this book, because she certainly brought it here! However, there was one thing that.........more

Amanda Bartlett, widowed Countess of Kingston, has led a somewhat dull life. She had a respectable society marriage, birthed an heir and a spare, and always followed her mother's guidance to "mind her step."
