Never Dare to Masquerade with a Maiden

A Viscount on a mission… A maid in hiding… A connection that can’t be severed.

He’s never forgotten the angel who saved his life.
Warren Dowling, the Viscount of Guernsey, has spent ten long years hunting down the girl who saved him—only to discover she has been right under his nose all along… watching, waiting, and determined to remain unseen. Now that he’s found her, he refuses to let her disappear again.

Olivia Walton has loved Warren in silence, following his life from the shadows.
A kitchen maid has no place dreaming of becoming the wife of a peer—and definitely should not be wanting to be held in his well-sculpted arms. The risk of dragging him into scandal was far too great. Remaining hidden was the safest place for her, especially since his heart belongs to another.

Except, Warren is no longer the wounded boy she once rescued. No, the viscount is a relentless gentleman who cares nothing for society’s rules or whispered gossip. He wants Olivia—her body, heart, and trust—and he will not be denied. The only problem is that Olivia is no missish debutant. She’s determined to remain hidden until she is forced to choose. Will she lose him forever or surrender to the man who has never stopped searching for her?
