        February 15, 2009
        Caro Hill, heir to a thriving Sheffield cutlery firm, wants to verify her widowhood so she can remarry. Believing his wife long dead, army officer Christian Hill, Viscount Grandiston, is wary as questions arise about Jack Hill, the name he used ten years earlier when he was forced to marry the very young Dorcas Froggatt after killing her erstwhile groom-to-be. When Mr. Grandiston arrives looking for Dorcas, Caro takes on several disguises to squash any threat to her fortune and her future. Their days together offer passion and danger but very little truth as neither realizes they are falling in love with their spouse. This charming, witty, and sultry tale, the second in the author's "Secrets" trilogy ("A Lady's Secret"), deftly captures the spirit and flavor of Georgian England. Beverley lives in Canada.

        Caro Hill mustdo one thing before she accepts Sir Eyam Colnes offer of marriage: find out if her first husband is truly dead. Ten years earlier, Caro, nee Dorcas Caroline Froggatt, washastily wed to a soldier calling himself Jack Hill. The next day, Hill left England for Canada, and soon afterward Caros aunt informed her that her new husband had been killed in battle. While Caro desperately searches for proof of Hills death, Viscount Grandiston suddenly turns up in Yorkshire, inquiring about Dorcas first marriage. Two perfectly matched, subtly nuanced protagonistsboth with their share of secretsclash with superbly sexy results in the latest addition to BeverleysGeorgian Secrets trilogy. Set in the same world as her beloved Malloren tales, Beverley proves again that shecanbe counted on to come up with clever and creative new ways of mixing passion and intrigue to create a beguiling love story.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2009, American Library Association.)
