Romantic adventure from a bestselling author, set in turn-of-the century Philadelphia; can love grow in the presence of danger?
Eager to ease the financial burdens of her family, Cassandra
Stover is thrilled when she is hired to be a companion to Mrs.
Jameston, a wealthy society woman. Cassie finds herself living a
life she'd never imagined-and growing close to the elderly woman
who treats her like a daughter.
Her new position is tarnished only by Mrs. Jameston's son. As
Sebastian's resentment and cruelty toward his mother mount, Cassie
begins to harbor concerns for her employer's safety--and ultimately
her own. When Sebastian is suspected of fraud, insurance
investigator Mark Langford solicits Cassie's help to uncover the
truth. But what begins as a game of pretense is quickly complicated
by matters of the heart.
