She didn't care that everyone else at court ignored her because she was a Tory - or that Viscount Raventhorpe was the most intriguing - and interfering - gentleman she'd ever met. She was too accustomed to her independence to accept unsolicited advice...and from a Whig no less!

And even as Letty and Raventhorpe scramble to avert a scandal that threatens their growing passion, they must join forces to thwart a sinister plot against their young queen - and save a love that could be called dangerous...
