About this eBook

A Regency Robin Hood, a duke’s daughter and deceptions of the heart

To escape her stepmother's matchmaking machinations, Lady Pearl runs away, pretending to be a common housemaid, with the help of her abigail. When she is rescued from the near-disaster of recognition by a charming serving-man, Pearl pretends to be simpleminded to safeguard herself from any unwanted advances. But soon she begins to suspect that her rescuer is far more than the common servant he seemed at first.

Luke St. Clair lives a double life, pretending to be a gentleman while in reality sustaining himself and the needy as the notorious Robin Hood-type thief, the Saint of Seven Dials. The last thing he needs in his life is a beautiful simpleton in need of protection. But "Purdy" proves to be anything but simple—or common! Once he learns the truth, does he dare continue, in the ballrooms of the elite, the flirtation that began in the slums of London? The risk is enormous, but Lady Pearl's sweet kisses may just be worth it.

Themes: legendary rogue, unforgettable hero, honorable intentions, noble purpose, secret identities, an heiress in disguise, romantic outlaws, Regency London series

Ratings and reviews

loved how the author made the ton and lowercase people combine to make such a wonderful read. I am not much for expressing myself in why I enjoy reading books so much. but be it as it may this was a great read and hard to put down. I 💕 my historical romances and this one was not your usual historical one.

An exquisitely exhilarating story of intelligence, open communication, and true love between two smart individuals who met by coincidence while wearing disguises!

I usually do not write reviews unless I get attached to the characters in a book.. but I made an exception for this book. I won't lie and say that the book is exceptionally good. No, but the book is good. I enjoyed it. I had downloaded it about a month back but was reluctant to start reading coz of the few bad reviews. it is bcoz of the said reviews that i am writing. these readers who have given such bad reviews, it seems have nothing better to do.. why don't they write for themselves!! believe me when I say the the story doesn't jump between plots, it is not depressing and nothing is inappropriate in it!!
