A Victorian twist on Robin Hood.
The Earl of Rochelle, Nikolas Whitworth, is handsome, charming. And a traitor.
He can outwit and outcon any Englishman—and any Englishwoman. When his debts are called in a savior appears, the criminal mastermind known only as the Tailor.
Nikolas is bought and sold, his future no longer his. But when a beguiling thief picks his pocket, Rosalyn Devereaux steals more than his coin. Orphaned as a child, Rosalyn trusts no one. She picks the pockets of lords and ladies alike, donating her spoils to the poor. The Tailor notices her skills and demands Rosalyn enlist in his cause.
With every moment beside Rosalyn, Nikolas changes from a life of lies to a man with a conviction. She occupies his every thought but can Nikolas outcon the Tailor and secure Rosalyn’s heart before the Tailor steals his love?
The carriage door squawked open, a footman at the ready.
Just a few years before Nikolas would have pranced to the ground with a
flourish but today, he groaned in his descent.
“You didn’t have to come,” Ada whispered behind him. She
came to his side. “I could have delivered the news on my own.” She was to be
married in a few weeks to the Duke of Girard.
For a man determined to find the Tailor, the duke had picked
the most inconvenient time to fall in love. Nikolas was not yet convinced
Girard was even human. He was stoic and cold with every word he spoke to
Nikolas. Granted, he’d spent the last three years trying to catch Nikolas.
