Heiress On The Run
Lady Arabella Lucia Fairborne has no need of a husband. She has a fine inheritance for the taking, a perfectly capable mind, and a resolve as tough as nails. But what she doesn't have is the freedom to defy her cousin's will—and his will is to see her married immediately to the husband of his choosing. So is it any wonder that she dresses herself as a scullery maid and bolts into the night?
Colin Somerville's current mission for the home office is going poorly. Who would have expected otherwise for a rakish spy tasked with transporting a baby to the care of the royal palace. But when, injured and out of ideas, Colin stumbles upon a beautiful maid who knows her way around a sickroom, it seems salvation has arrived. Until he realizes that though Lucy may be able to help him survive his expedition, he may not escape this ordeal with his heart intact...

      Miles continues to demonstrate her skill with historical romance with the excellent second book in the Regency-era Muses’ Salon series (after Jilting the Duke). Scullery maid Lucy is really Lady Arabella Lucia Fairbourne, in flight from her dastardly cousin after the death of her great-aunt Aurelia. She must find her way to London before her cousin can make good on his plan to surreptitiously kill her. Colin Somerville, the younger brother of a duke, has had his fill of duty, yet he undertakes one last mission for the Home Office—one that nearly ends in his death. Lucy nurses him back to health while giving him her heart, though not her secrets. The pair must stay alive while fleeing deadly machinations from all sides. Miles isn’t afraid to include stark descriptions of life during the time period, and she manages to walk that fine line between realism and pure romance, blending both into an engaging tale that’s a feast for the imagination. Agent: Courtney Miller-Callihan, Handspun Literary.
