If anyone could penetrate Serena's disguise as a tart--and jeopardize the political fugitives she was delivering to freedom--it would surely be London's most notorious gamester. Yet when the militia storms the establishment in search of traitors, Raynor provides just the pretext Serna needs to escape to an upstairs bedroom. But Serena is playing with fire...and before the night is through she will find herself surrendering to the heat of unsuspected desires.Seductive. Fiery. Treacherous.She had used him for her own scheming purposes, then thrown his generous proposition back in his face.
