Sins of a Ruthless Rogue

Ten years ago, Clayton Campbell revealed to his lover, Olivia Swift, that her father was counterfeiting money and, instead of trusting him, Olivia has Clayton arrested and sentenced to death. Wracked with guilt over her betrayal, she toiled to keep her family's paper mill running until Clayton shows up unexpectedly after years underground in a trio of England's master spies. At first relieved, she becomes distraught over his plans to ruin her father's printing contract with the crown. Olivia and Clayton battle their attraction while navigating mutual distrust until an old enemy after Clayton uses Olivia as bait. Clayton is suspicious about everything, where Olivia is engaging, enterprising, and endearing every step of the way. From England to the glittering glamor of the Russian tsar's court, the reluctant lovers are intent on decoding a secret message and thwarting a revolution. Spunky and spirited, Olivia refuses to cower in front of the unknown adversary or from Clayton's rage. She will save the tsar's life from the assassins and her paper mill from Clayton's vengeance. If along the way, she uncovers the tender passionate Clayton who loves her, that was just a bonus. (April)
