"Ever since the horrible day her brother was accused of treason, Patience Mandeley hasn't recognized her own behavior. Under normal circumstances she would never be disguised as a maid, skulking around an earl's estate for secrets she isn't meant to find. But now the situation is desperate, and Patience will do whatever it takes to spare her beloved brother the noose, even if it means finding the true spy herself. To do that, she'll have to gain access to the estate of Lord Londringham, the most desired bachelor in all of England--without him knowing who she really is. But even in her maid's uniform, she can't miss the looks of unsurpressed desire she receives from her employer, and she finds to her dismay that the attraction is quite mutual. Though she knows she must ignore her feelings for this dark-haired rogue to save her family and escape ruin, his close proximity is making all reason impossible ... and Patience may find that the real traitor is her own body ..."--Page 4 of cover.
