I was bored and had ordered a triogy novel with Cathy Maxwell and Nicole Cornick had a section of the book. I read it and I liked it so I ordered more of her books. Now she in on my preferred list of Author's. Well written,fast read and chacters are well developed, plus she had several charters with teasers for a sequel. Now I search her books for these characters so I can read their stories.The only regative is NO PROLOG and I love the prolog.

In 1805 the Home Secretary loudly orders Major Nick Falconer to investigate the murder of his odious cousin and to go to Yorkshire to destroy the infamous Glory Girls gang. Nick prefers to do neither, but immediately races off for Yorkshire before his superior rips more skin off his back.

In Yorkshire, Nick meets Widow Mari Osborne; whereas he swears they met in London on the same night his cousin died, she insists they never met before. A bit taken aback as he knows she has no twin or doppelganger, Nick concludes she is lying although he cannot fathom why. He decides to make her his priority as he is attracted to her, but he remains unaware that the two other cases his superior has made Nick's will soon tie together through the woman he loves.

Robin "Hood-ettes" inside a regency romance make for a merry tale filled with suspense and murder. The story line is fast-paced from the moment that the government operative and the widow meet and never slows down as he investigates her secrets while she tries to nudge him onto false trails filled with red herrings. That passion called love makes for strange bedfellows as Nicolas Cornick provides an enjoyable historical cat and mouse tale.

This is the first book I read from Nicola Cornick. I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you like Lisa Kleypas and Mary Balogh, you will love this book.

Nicola Cornick has written a lovely romance with an intriguing plot. You'll want to discover Mari's secrets and see how Mari and Nick fall in love.
