Dear Mr. Clemens,

A recent article in the Munro Times revealed that Miss Irene Sangford had had a nasty fall from her horse in Munro Park. The young woman is a fine rider, and it surprised this reader that she would be so easily unseated.

A subsequent article added the most horrific details. One could scarce believe our grand park would be the scene of such a disturbing event. According to a witness, Miss Sangford and her sister were riding at the fashionable hour when a man jumped out in front of them, wielding a knife! If it were not for the timely presence of Mr. Nathaniel Macrae, who chased the villain away, who knows what terrible consequences might have befallen the young ladies? The groom who accompanied them would certainly not have been armed. How would he have defended his master’s precious daughters?

Poor Miss Amelia fainted with fear. She might not have been injured like her sister, but the ordeal would have been no less terrifying for her. And yet, neither of the Misses Sangford have spoken of it or sought pity from others. It is a degree of modesty one can but admire.

And to think that the miscreant is still out there! It is small wonder we have seen so few ladies out riding in Munro Park since the news has been made known. It is a shame that our city’s most beautiful public park must be avoided for the safety of our more delicate citizens. We can only hope that the villain is soon caught.

Appalled,

A longstanding resident of Munro

 

Pride comes before her fall. Love helps her stand again.

Irene Sangford has willingly cast herself as the villain of her own story. After all, her family has taught her that arrogance and manipulation are suitable qualities in a lady if she’s seeking a husband with a title. Especially when there are so few such men to be had, and she is competing with her own sister to snap one of them up.

Nathaniel Macrae not only has no title, he has immersed himself in low society in his role as a secret investigator. Miss Sangford would never have given him a second glance, but when an attempted murder leads his inquiries right to her door, and a shocking secret from her past threatens to unravel her entire life, Irene discovers that Mr. Macrae is more compelling than any man she has ever met.

As Irene’s world falls apart, and she questions everything she has ever known, Nathaniel becomes her anchor in life’s greatest storm. Except this storm threatens to destroy them both. They will have to challenge everything they know and trust each other if they are to survive and find the love that has eluded them.
