A Love Most Daring - (Proper Romance Regency) by Joanna Barker (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

From best-selling author Joanna Barker: Proper romance meets page-turning mystery in this captivating tale of danger, redemption, and love worth fighting for.

After years of whispered gossip and quiet exile in the countryside, Beatrice Lacey arrives in London determined to reclaim her life. But her resolve is shaken when she witnesses a horrific attack tied to a chilling high-profile murder case gripping the city.

Thrust into sudden danger, Beatrice finds herself under the reluctant protection of Alexander Rawlings--a brooding Bow Street officer with a guarded heart and a fierce sense of duty. Though it's clear he'd rather be chasing the killer than shielding a scandal-stained Society miss, their forced closeness begins to unravel his defenses. In the unnerving moments between danger and discovery, every sharp exchange and lingering glance fans a slow-burning connection--one neither of them expected and neither can resist.

With danger closing in and old wounds resurfacing, trust may be their only refuge--and love their most daring risk of all.
