As the fifth son of an earl, Roderick Northcott is on his own financially, with only a small allowance that he’s growing embarrassed to accept. If he wants the funds to support his friends’ scientific endeavors, he’ll need to marry an heiress. He knows the frivolous Lucy is not a suitable prospect. So, why can’t he stay away?
But when Roderick unwittingly drags Lucy into a dangerous investigation he’s undertaken for the Home
