He pretended he was her lover. She became his alibi...and his only love. Augustine Bolton lives amid the social whirl and treachery of the stylish court of Josephine and Napoleon Bonaparte. When Gus's dearest friend, Amber, disappears, Gus must find her before the deputy chief of police finds Amber and carts her off to his bed-or to la Force. But Gus's means are few and her own duties as an agent in Amber's network mean she is also suspect. Gus needs help. Kane Whittington is just the man for the job. He has worked for London merchant-cum-spymaster Scarlett Hawthorne for years and welcomes Scarlett's call to build a large espionage network in Europe. His first task is to find the missing head of Scarlett's espionage network. The best person to help him is the lady's best friend whom he's never met. But when he sets eyes on ravishing Augustine Bolton in Josephine's salon, Kane recognizes the black-haired beauty as the one he kissed years ago on the road to Malmaison during a botched abduction of Bonaparte. Kane must persuade the beautiful Gus to allow him to help her. He suggests the cover for their escapade is simple: They show the gossipy Parisian court they enjoy a mad love affair. Thus, Gus gains an ally-and Kane acquires an alibi. But Gus's ally is a darling man whose kindness thrills her. His alibi is a brave, beautiful woman he cannot give up. Can they find a way to fulfill their missions-and join together to claim their love for a lifetime?
