A thief to steal...
the Countess's heart?

Former pickpocket Amelia is trapped in a life of servitude to the man who caught her. He offers a deal: Help him win the hand--and fortune--of Countess Beatrice by posing as a governess. In return for information that will help his courtship, he'll grant Amelia her freedom.

Complications arise when Amelia meets the jaw-droppingly lovely Beatrice. Amelia feels startlingly at home in the Countess's household, and their clandestine meetings in the music room quickly become a nightly habit... Amelia can't deny their connection--but when her liberty depends on Beatrice's marriage to another, can she risk following her heart?
