"Ye're under me protection now, lass. 'Tis yers, whether ye accept it or not." The Duke's Guard: The men in black who have sworn an oath to protect the Duke of Wyndmere and his family from enemies that would stop at nothing to discredit and destroy him! Darby Garahan's latest assignment, to uncover the source behind the threat to kill the duke's brother-in-law, is complicated when the angel of the streets asks for his help. He must rescue a young woman who has been lured to London with the promise of employment-only to end up at a boarding house rumored to be a front for a brothel. Aimee Anderson answers an advert for a position at a milliner's shop in London, taking charge of her life after a lord compromised her on the way to Gretna Green a few years earlier, leaving her stranded at an inn. The handsome-as-sin Irishman who rescues Aimee reminds her that the past does not have to define the future if she has the courage to make a change. Rescuing her is just the beginning. He must convince her that she is not damaged goods in order to gain her trust and win her heart and her hand in marriage. Danger stalks in the night, but it will have to challenge The Duke's Enforcer. Nothing short of dying will deter him from his duty to protect the duke and his family!
