The Marquis of Thunder (The Heart of a Hero #5)

Threatened by violence and storm . . .

Miss Seraphina Janesley has her hands full. There's war on the continent and a Luddite uprising in the village. The river has flooded, Papa is ailing, and her roof has blown off. Now their landlord—the scandalous Marquis of Thunder—plans to host an orgy in their crumbling home! What on earth is she going to do? She'll make a bargain with the Marquis, of course. A bargain that might cost her dearly.

. . . what she needs is a Hero.

Lord Thorston—called the Marquis of Thunder by those who know his reputation—is not simply here for a wild party. He’s come to unmask a spy. As part of a secret organization, Thorston is working to protect the crown from those who conspire against it. Is Miss Janesley one of these foes? He’ll have to get close to her to find out. In the end, though, will he be able to betray her, or will the gathering storm in his heart prove too much even for him?
