Silver-tongued lawyer.
Keeper of secrets.
Breaker of hearts.
He can solve any problem…
In serving the wealthy power brokers of New York society, Frank Tripp has finally gained the respectability and security his own upbringing lacked. There’s no issue he cannot fix…except for one: the beautiful and reckless daughter of an important client who doesn’t seem to understand the word danger.
She’s not looking for a hero…
Excitement lies just below Forty-Second Street and Mamie Greene is determined to explore all of it—while playing a modern-day Robin Hood along the way. What she doesn’t need is her father’s lawyer dogging her every step and threatening her efforts to help struggling families in the tenements.
However, she doesn’t count on Frank’s persistence…or the sparks that fly between them. When fate upends all her plans, Mamie must decide if she’s willing to risk it all on a rogue…

Excerpt:
I
will agree but only if you kiss me.
The thought came unbidden, a whisper from deep
in her brain. Her gaze darted to his mouth, those full lips that flirted and
cajoled every time they parted. What other feats could his mouth and lips
perform, if needed?
Stop,
Mamie. You have been listening to Florence too much these days.
She let her lids fall and tried to calm her
racing heart. Chauncey. He was her future husband, the only man she should be
lusting over. Desire for Frank Tripp was a complication she could not take on
right now.
A finger swept under her chin to turn her
head—and her eyes flew open. Frank was openly studying her, his stare hot and
intense, with the gentle press of his finger holding her in place. The air in
the carriage turned charged, an electricity that seemed to jump between them
like alternating current. Her heart thumped in her chest, so loud she was
certain he could hear it.
“Do we have a deal, Mamie?”
There was that deep grating tone again, the
one she’d not heard him use before tonight. “Yes,” she heard herself whisper.
The side of his mouth hitched, a flare of male
satisfaction lighting his gaze. He dropped his hold on her and before she could
blink he rapped on the roof. “Here!”
The wheels slowed as the vehicle pulled over.
She blinked in confusion. “What about seeing me home?”
“My driver will ensure you arrive safely.
Remember our bargain. Good evening, Miss Greene.”
And he disappeared out the door and into the
dark Manhattan night.
You will need a lot of tea for this wonderful tale! I give this a Big 5 Stars! I really enjoyed this tale, it was a breath of fresh air. Our H and h in this tale are just phenomenal and Shupe throws quite a bit of conflict at them and together they overcome it all and the passion that develops from the two of them is just amazing and will warm your heart. If you love a deeply romantic historical, then this is the book for you!
