A fascinating novel of Victorian romance and intrigue.
Intelligent, pretty, but without "prospects," Elizabeth McLeod was resigned to her native Scotland and living out her days in quiet spinsterhood. But that was before she became engaged to a man whom she had known for one hour and found herself at the very center of a plot to overthrow the government of France...
A marriage of convenience... that's all it was. Hector's reputation was threatened by scandal in Paris, and Elizabeth lacked a roof over her head. Each needed to get married. So they married each other.
It would be a no-nonsense marriage. A business venture. Hector would carry out his assignments in the Foreign Office, while Elizabeth played hostess and ran the household. How could they have known that soon Elizabeth's very life -- and the fate of an entire nation -- would depend on the strength of Hector's love for her?
