This is one of my all time favorites by this author, and she has written alot of winners!

The carriage that was rolling swiftly along the rainy English marsh on the road from London suddenly stopped. A barricade blocked the way. Dark figures surrounded them. Christina had no time to cry out as strong arms caught her from behind. A hand covered her mouth. She bit it as hard as she could.

"Damnation!" The voice was a gentleman's. "Who are you, anyway, and what the devil are you doing wandering about the marsh at night?"

She looked up at the tall, masked stranger, and a mysterious, frightening sensation swept over her. Those fiery brown eyes gazed at her in a way she had never known before . . .

And it only gets better!!

Five and twenty ponies,
Trotting through the dark--
Brandy for the Parson,
'Baccy for the Clerk;
Laces for a lady; letters for a spy,
And watch the wall, my darling, while the Gentlemen go by!

From: A Smugglers' Song by Rudyard Kipling
