Ashford McNab provides a delightful reading of this Regency romance mixed with mystery. Ivory Moore is businesswoman who specializes in fixing the messes of the upper crust. But when she’s hired to clean up the scandal of Lady Beatrice Harcourt, she gets more than she bargained for in the form of Lady Bea’s older brother, Maximus Harcourt, duke of Alderidge. Ivory’s voice sounds clear and calm, while McNab gives Max’s voice a deep, harsher quality. As their investigation takes them out of ballrooms and into the streets of London, McNab provides unique voices to messenger boys, sea captains, and even black market dealers that reflect their less polished speech. As the story alternates between mystery and romance, McNab doesn’t miss a beat and provides a satisfying reading for those who enjoy romance with a touch of adventure.

Captain Maximus Harcourt, the unconventional tenth Duke of Alderidge, can deal with tropical storms, raging seas, and the fiercest of pirates. But he's returned home from his latest voyage to find a naked earl - quite inconveniently deceased - tied to his missing sister's bed. And he has only one place to turn. Now he's at the mercy of the captivating Miss Ivory Moore of Chegarre & Associates, known throughout London for smoothing over the most dire of scandals.
Miss Moore treats the crisis as though it were no more serious than a cup of spilt tea on an expensive rug. As though this sort of thing happened on the job every day. Max has never in all his life met a woman with such nerve. Her dark eyes are too wide, her mouth is too full, her cheekbones too sharp. Yet together, she's somehow...flawless. It's just like his love for her, imperfect, unexpected - yet absolutely true.
