Four dangerous, high-profile spies, who answer only to the King for their actions, will take readers into court intrigue and social scandals, into ballrooms and bedrooms. They... The Royal Four. The beautiful Villa Trent was an orphan of noble birth, raised in the village by a slightly strange family who wanted only the best for their girl. So when Willa delivers home an unconscious man whom she accidentally knocked off his horse with a slingshot, her guardians hastily marry her to him and send the newlywed couple off with their best wishes. Armed with a shaky husband and a new future, Willa's optimism knows no bounds... until she discovers the secret, dangerous world of Nathaniel Stonewell, Earl of Reardon, aka "Lord Traitor." Although most people in England disapprove of Nathaniel insults due to his long-standing plot against the Crown, in reality he is one of the elite members of the royal secret protectors on a daring, secret mission. He must guard his secrets at all costs, especially from Willa. And yet, Nathaniel is captivated... even though he stubbornly refuses to give in to his passion. It is much better, he tells himself, to turn his back on love than to risk everything for her. Fortunately, his fiancee has other plans...
