Ten years ago debutante Olivia Wharton jilted the handsome Lord Malcross and vowed never to revisit London again. But when her beloved step-father's will goes missing she must return to town to search for it. Lord Noah Troman, Viscount of Malcross, promised to put Olivia Wharton out of his mind forever. But when a mysterious letter brings them together again, Noah realizes he will do anything to win Olivia back. Repeated attacks on Olivia prove that someone is out to kill her before she can secure her inheritance. But finding the will and catching the assassin prove almost as difficult for Olivia and Noah as healing their broken hearts and mending the breech between them.
