Quote:An assassin and her mark might find love amidst the turmoil of a technology war between steam and electricity if they can learn to trust each other...

Louisa Stanton, Madame and assassin, has another assignment to eliminate an enemy of the Crown. Normally she does her duty without asking too many questions, but something about this assignment has her hesitating. And it's not just the blue-grey gaze of the handsome lord she was sent to kill.

John Griffin, the Earl of Melton, can imagine more than one reason an assassin is standing in his house with a blade pressed to his neck. Too bad he has no intention of dying. Not even at the hands of the darkly sensual assassin sent to kill him.

When he convinces her to help him find who ordered his death, nothing about their alliance goes as planned. Not when his mother mistakes his would-be-killer for his fiancé, and not when they steam up the sheets. The question is, can they discover who is behind his kill order before everything falls apart in a tangle of secrets and lies?
