A vanished rogue. A daring lady in disguise. A passion resurrected against all odds.
Naturalist Anthony St. Briac vanished in the Galapagos and is presumed dead. Five-and-twenty Frederica Redfield refuses to accept the loss of the one man she once allowed herself to love. Forced into marriage with an elderly baron, she instead escapes, disguising herself as a male scholar, and takes work cataloguing fossils in Anthony's empty Mayfair home.
But her secret world collapses the night a shadowed stranger appears—a dangerous, magnetic figure she instantly recognizes. Anthony is alive. And Freddie's new life, new identity, and carefully guarded heart erupt into chaos.
As they race to uncover the truth behind his disappearance, desire flares hotter than ever. But surrendering to love may demand the one thing neither has ever been willing to risk: complete trust.
When a rogue returns from the dead, love becomes the most perilous discovery of all.
