A gentleman and a very improper lady are bound together by a passion that crosses the line between upper class and underworld in Caroline Linden's daring new romance . . .
Thanks to his wayward youth, David Reece, the youngest scion in a noble family, has been called one of the most scandalous rogues of the ton. What he wants to be called is trustworthy and a true gentleman. To prove he has reformed he's agreed to watch over his absent brother's estate. All is going swimmingly until highwaymen waylay his coach and steal his brother's signet ring . . .
After growing up a pickpocket, street orphan Vivian Beecham has reluctantly graduated to highway robbery. But her handsome victim is quick to turn the tables and take her prisoner. Though David has the pretty thief locked in a spare bedroom, he's in no place to judge her youthful indiscretion. Instead she becomes a former rogue's greatest challenge: the object of a passionate seduction . . .
