Synopsis

*Terrified* Isabel Millington has fled her home without money or social connections - shattered by the discovery that her uncle and guardian was responsible for her parents' deaths. Until she can contact a distant relative currently overseas, she will simply have to get by somehow - even if it means taking on a false identity and accepting employment from a man she isn't sure she can trust. *Trapped* Fox Tremayne, a disgraced former officer, lives on an estate surrounded by swamps and accessible only by boat. He is keenly aware that this beauty in slightly shabby clothing has not been honest about her past. But he hires her nonetheless - simply to keep her close in his isolated mansion. Not close enough, though, for her to learn the truth about the disreputable way he made his fortune.... *Tantalized* His handsome face hides a scheming heart. Her proper demeanor disguises her passion. Their bond is based on secrets and lies. But some things cannot remain hidden for long....
