About this listen
Lady Madeline Mulbourne, widow of a renowned art critic, has secrets. Pretty secrets. Sparkling secrets. Ever since the wars on the continent ended, she's been determined to return the jewels the French confiscated to their rightful owners...even if it means stealing them herself.
Lord Arthur Carmichael, Marquess of Bancroft and a former spy, is in need of a bride. Who is more suited than the woman he'd once intended to marry? But when jewels disappear at balls Madeline attends, Arthur suspects Madeline might have more than one reason for not wanting to marry him....
Contains mature themes.

Good plot but rushed ending
The story starts out strong but it is under developed. The story tells a good backstory but flips us through the "convenience" leading up to the necessary marriage then almost completely skips the relationship that develops between the couple for their second chance. Wasn't their refound love the point? Where did it go? We missed its growth and instead are punted right into the conclusion which is also a muck up. There is no explanation as how the Admiral came to his conclusion about the jewel theft culprit nor to why he changed his mind on love. Why & how he figured out the marquis remains a mystery to the reader. Then wham we are thrown a few sentences about her career path and it's over. The bones are there but the flesh is missing.
