| Publisher Description: "I suppose I can't expect to keep you under lock and key. You're hardly a criminal. . .are you?" It takes a criminal to catch one, and Nicholas Brentwood is just the man for the job. Reformed in more ways than one, the rough-around-the-edges Brentwood is a member of the Bow Street Runners, London's early nineteenth-century fledgling police force. There's none better than Brentwood at catching the felons who ravage the city's streets, and there's nothing he loves more than seeing justice served. Beautiful and beguiling, Miss Emily Payne is not the sort of miscreant Brentwood usually hunts down. When he is assigned as her bodyguard, he vows to protect her from her father's enemies, who will stop at nothing to carry out their mission fueled by greed and revenge. All her life, Emily has longed for love, but it remains beyond her grasp. This season she's determined to find a husband, which is quite the undertaking with a hound-dog guardian like Brentwood watching her every step. If he would just give her some measure of freedom, she is sure she could win the heart of society's most eligible bachelor. Emily's headstrong persistence challenges Nicholas in ways he doesn't expect but of one thing he's certain-of all the cunning criminals he's dealt with in the past, this time he's met his match. |
Contributor Bio(s): Griep, Michelle: - Michelle Griep's been writing since she first discovered blank wall space and Crayolas. She seeks to glorify God in all that she writes--except for that graffiti phase she went through as a teenager. She resides in the frozen tundra of Minnesota, where she teaches history and writing classes for a local high school co-op. An Anglophile at heart, she runs away to England every chance she gets, under the guise of research. Really, though, she's eating excessive amounts of scones while rambling around a castle. Michelle is a member of ACFW (American Christian Fiction Writers) and MCWG (Minnesota Christian Writers Guild).
