An Heiress by Midnight

di Clair Brett (Autore)

CB Publishing, 2017

Lady Louissa Adair was raised by her uncle to be anything but a lady, spending hours scrubbing the decks of his ill-begotten ships. Now, he has tasked her with a more deadly task. If she refuses, any hope of finding her long-lost and possibly dead brother will be lost while her uncle moves up his timeline to marry her off to a most dastardly man. While doing her uncle's bidding, a blasted Englishman running around Scotland sets upon being her champion – not that Louissa has ever needed one. If he doesn't get them both killed, and she might just kill the fool herself, she faces an even bigger danger – losing her heart. Lord Clive Colcord, Earl of Breakerton, had escaped to Scotland in an attempt to avoid scrutiny by his late father's solicitors. It had been a quiet, if not boring rustication until he finds himself tasked by the local magistrate with apprehending the highwayman menacing the North Road. He doesn't expect to discover a beguiling dark-haired beauty with more dangerous men in her life than Clive has sisters. Yet he finds himself offering aid in an attempt to protect this damsel in distress. He must help Louissa find the proof of her uncle's crimes and find her brother before she is forced into marriage all the while not losing his own heart in the process.
