Nothing would ever convince her to stay in England, but then an idea forms that might just benefit all parties. She will pretend to entertain a man of her parents' choosing all while dreaming of her freedom. Convinced this is the right course of action, things turn sour when one particular man decides to intervene. She firmly detests him—so then why do his fiery kisses leave her aching?

Logan Montgomery has always had a secretive past, one he kept from his fellow agents—for good reason.

As the hour of reckoning approaches, some infuriating American chit decides to put herself in peril. To save her from her own error, Logan steps in to rescue her, and finds that this mistake could be the best he's ever made.
