Lady Daphne Swift comes from a family with two brothers who have proudly served the Crown. She is a woman willing to do whatever it takes to prove she can be as useful to the war effort as her brothers. She even went so far as to secretly marry a spy. The fact that she had been pining for Captain Rafe Cavendish for years didn’t hurt matters. But after their first mission, when she realized their marriage had been strictly business, Daphne immediately sought an annulment. The fiery Daphne has always been a multitasker and is now hell-bent on two things: finding the men who killed her brother and securing an engagement to another man to forget Rafe forever.
As a spy for the War Office, Captain Rafferty Cavendish has been on dozens of missions. But one mission haunts him—the mission that resulted in the death of Daphne Swift’s eldest brother, Donald. Rafe agreed to work with Daphne once and put her life in danger. Now he must find the men who killed Donald, avenge the family, and convince Daphne to give him one more chance. But Daphne has enlisted her other older brother, Julian, to help her obtain a quick and quiet annulment so she can marry a fop who only wants her for her title and money. Can Rafe convince Daphne to give him one more chance, both on the mission and with her heart?
