A Perfect Knave: Historical Romance
Alyssa Kress
Emile ‘the Fox’ should probably feel thankful the interfering wench sneaked him past the gang who sought to kill him at the market fair, but he doesn’t appreciate the emotions she stirs up, emotions he’d long since banished from his heart. He doesn’t want the foolish desire that creeps up on him, a thieving knave, to win a drop of her respect. All he wants is to steal a plate or two of her father’s silver and be on his way, free of any personal entanglement or responsibility.
Lucy’s father, however, has other plans. He’s not about to let slip the only man in England who isn’t afraid of Lucy.
