ABOUT THE BOOK
Despite
living at her father's inn her entire life, Elizabeth Doyle has always
managed to avoid involvement with the smugglers who frequently gather
there. Until now. When a handsome smuggler is brought to her with dire
injuries, Elizabeth risks everything to hide him—completely unaware that
the wounded man is not who he appears to be.
When an opportunity arises to infiltrate the notorious smuggling gang he believes caused his father's death, Jonas Ainsworth, the Viscount Langton, pretends to be one of them. But when he is wounded mid-charade, Jonas's life is placed in the hands of an unlikely savior: a smuggler's daughter. Forced to flee before his wounds have fully healed, he does not think he will ever see her again—until she appears on his doorstep, seeking safe haven. Divided by their social standings yet united in their mutual desire to expose the leader of the smuggling ring, Jonas and Elizabeth are undeniably drawn to each other. Neither realizes, however, that they are dangerously close to uncovering explosive secrets from the past—secrets that will alter the course of their lives forever.

REVIEW
Elizabeth Doyle would rather not be involved in smuggling, but as an innkeeper's daughter, she has little choice in the matter. Jonas Ainsworth, the Viscount Langton, on the other hand, enters into smuggling of his own freewill. As Jonas seeks a way to overthrow the local smuggling gang and find answers to his father's death from year's ago, he's surprised to discover he has feelings for Lizzie. But Elizabeth thinks Jonas is a smuggler named Reynard and faces serious difficulties when her father pushes her toward marrying a corrupt local official. Forced to flee, Elizabeth seeks Reynard for help only to discover he isn't who she thought he was. But together they work to take down the smugglers only to realize there's a secret to be uncovered that's greater than any they have yet come across. Bessey tells a fabulous tale that I found to be a compelling read. As usual, her historical details are suburb without slowing the story. I appreciated the use of an interesting time period involving those other than just the aristocracy. An enjoyable story mixed with an intriguing romance made for a thoroughly engaging read.
