Produktbeschreibung
Shipwrecked and believed dead by his friends, Captain Philip Elliot has been in hiding whilst spying on one of Napoleon's most trusted lieutenants. Despite being in exile, Bonaparte still has grandiose plans of escape and conquering Europe...with the help of his ex-mistress, La Glacier, the most beautiful and complicit woman in France. Now the Duke of Wellington wants Philip to come out of hiding in order to help expose La Glacier's plot to free the Emperor. ¿Lady Amelia Blake has taken London Society by storm, having multiple suitors and multiple offers for her hand-yet she can accept none of them. Pining after Captain Elliot after a brief acquaintance, she could not find another man who had the same effect on her. When one of her suitors attempts to force her hand, she jumps at the chance to escape to France and help Wellington spy on her mysterious aunt. Only, she discovers her partner in this endeavour is the very man she is trying to forget. Will she be up to the task when her heart has such divided loyalties?

Autorenporträt
USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Johns was first an avid reader, though she was a reluctant convert. It was Jane Austen's clever wit and unique turn of phrase that hooked Johns when she was "forced" to read Pride and Prejudice for a school assignment. She began writing when she ran out of her favorite author's books and decided to try her hand at crafting a Regency romance novel. Her journey into publishing began with the release of Surrender the Past, book one of the Loring-Abbott Series. Johns makes no pretensions to Austen's wit but hopes readers will perhaps laugh and find some enjoyment in her writing.Johns attributes much of her inspiration to her mother, a retired English teacher. During their last summer together, Johns would sit on the porch swing and read her stories to her mother, who encouraged her to continue writing. Busy with multiple careers, including a professional job in the medical field, author and mother, Johns squeezes in time for reading whenever possible.
