A Woman Forges a Treacherous Path to Save Hundreds from the Guillotine. If Geneviève had the same rights as a man, she wouldn’t have to dress like one or marry one. After saving Louis, a man she thought she hated, she is wanted for her crimes—and he is the only one she can trust. A suspenseful page-turner led by a renegade heroine whose compassion for innocent people leads to both loss and love.

She rushes to the city to consult with Sam who suspects both he and the captain are having their strings pulled. This might be the most critical case ever to confront the Discreet Detectives.
A roll of the dice might be your only chance.
Marti Chance is not surprised when Captain James Monroe shows up claiming to have won her family estate from her cheating uncle in a game of dice. As the new owner, Monroe is thrust into the chaos of running the estate and protecting it, his children, and Marti from the murderous uncle’s attacks while falling in love with the bravest woman he’s ever met.
