She swore she'd never deceive anyone about her identity again but finds herself thrust into Ranleigh's world, and his confidence, before she has the chance to tell him the truth.Far worse, and far more dangerous, Archie is falling for him.Archie must make a choice, reveal all and risk ruin - staking her hopes on the possibility the duke could return her feelings - or keep her peace and disappear from his life.
