Baldwin Radcliff, the Marquess of Hawthorne, is working on his last case as an agent of the Crown, since he is about to retire and take up his seat in the House of Lords.

As he searches for the enemy, he discovers a meddling heiress that keeps stumbling in at the most inopportune times, making him wonder if she is perhaps the spy he has been sent to find.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Baldwin Radcliffe, the Marquess of Hawthorne is an agent for the Crown and has just returned from three years undercover in France. Not being able to tell his family where he has been causes hurt feelings. Even though he is home he is still leading a double life.
This is an interesting historical romance filled with danger and intrigue. Our heroine is no spoiled miss just spending her money. She is brave and loyal and more than able to take care of herself and those she loves.
This is the first book of a series that I will definitely be reading more of.
Great fun.
