The Book of Secrets

Beautiful, clever, and strong-willed – she speaks her mind. Such a companion is rarely tolerated for long. It’s no surprise that Emma Greyson must forge a letter of recommendation to secure a new position. But even with spectacles on, the gentlemen at the country estate notice her beauty. To escape their unwanted attention, she hides in a wardrobe, where she unexpectedly finds company…

Edison Stokes runs his business empire with a firm hand and does not hesitate when a friend asks him to investigate: a valuable old book has gone missing, and the thief is likely among the guests. He is searching for the right woman as bait – and Emma seems perfect for the role. The only way to watch over and protect her is to take her on as his assistant. What he does not yet realise is that Emma’s stubborn nature may endanger not only the investigation but both their lives.
