Description
A Lady with unusual connections, Elizabeth Penrose is wise, witty, beautiful, and quite determined to remain alone.Brendan Hampton, Earl of Northam, also known as North, is pursuing a jewel thief with the help of his three boon companions: South, East, and West—The Compass Club.
Then North is accused of being the very thief he is seeking and Lady Elizabeth steps forward with an alibi, one that necessitates a hasty marriage. Their lives thoroughly complicated by secrets, Libby must make a show more harrowing choice: trust her husband, or lose him forever.
