About this item
When American heiress Gwen Barton aids an injured gentleman in an opera box in London, she shares a kiss with the stranger that changes her life. More determined than ever to be herself, in spite of the limp shes sustained since childhood, she will marry for love and not a title. She also resolves to learn the identity of the man she helpedand kissed. Surely he cant be the irritating Avery Winfield though. But as circumstances continue to throw Gwen and Avery together, she begins to wonder if there is more to this man than she first thought. While most of London only knows him as the nephew of a duke, Avery Winfield is actually working for the Secret Service Bureau to ferret out German spies from among the ton. Its a profession that gives him purpose and a reason to remain a bachelor.
