Prudence Cabot sailed to Europe to find a lover.
As an American widow flush with cash, she has hopes of finding the burning, passionate love she never experienced in her marriage. But instead, she found The Ladies Alpine Society, and is now pressed into planning a fundraising ball with the expedition’s accountant, Leo Moon. Prudence feels out of her depth, but glad to have a partner-in-crime to help her navigate British culture. But the taciturn Mr. Moon doesn’t like her—or does he like her too much?
One look and she saw right through him.
Leo Moon is not his real name. He has spent most of his life building his wealth, protecting his mother, hiding in plain sight. But in walks Prudence, and his secrets are laid bare. When he overhears her talking about wanting a lover, he offers his services. After all, they’ve been charged with planning a ridiculous party, so they have an excuse to call on one another. But as they keep their burning-hot secret, Leo’s past waltzes into London, and Leo is forced to choose.
His safety or her love?

“This was an original and well written love story. A widow’s attempt at beginning a new life leads to a humorous and witty encounter and onto an exciting relationship with many ups and downs. The side stories of a rough upbringing, a charming rake, a false, hidden identity, thae past coming back to haunt, and so many more interesting issues and situations that were very entertaining. The characters were strong-willed, intelligent, complex, witty, and so delightful. This story kept me engaged as I waited to see how everything would end. I enjoyed the romance, passion, and happy and beautiful ending. I highly recommend reading!” – Lyn D. Rose
“I hoped that the second book would focus on Prudence, and it did. I liked her no-nonsense attitude about finding herself a lover so she could enjoy a relationship. Leo, by contrast, seemed too weak for her at times. His mother was a great character. There was less in this book about the actual climbing prep, other than they ran for conditioning. I missed that, but I enjoyed the fancy ball. Book 3 will feature another of the four women in the Ladies Alpine Society, but we really didn’t get a good look at them in this book to root for someone to be next. Even so, Cay’s toe-curling sex scenes and setting/character descriptions will keep me reading.” -Linda Ulleseit, Paper Lantern Writer
