The Marquis of Thunder

Lord Thorston is a man on a mission. While others call him "the Marquis of Thunder," Thorston hides his true objective behind a mask of privilege and conceit. Really, though, he serves a higher purpose. Recruited to assist the crown, he finds himself in rural Nottinghamshire, faced with his most formidable foe yet--his own traitorous heart. Miss Seraphina Janesley fears there is more to this pompous wastrel than he would have her believe. Is he merely preoccupied with folly, or is he here to uncover her secrets? With French spies, local Luddites, and the river rising around her, can she dare trust him? Is the Marquis of Thunder her hero, or is he her downfall?
