Paris, September 1824
Lord Nicholas Asquith needs his wife. Too bad he broke her heart ten years ago.
Can he resist a second chance at the love he lost?
When Mariana catches the eye of the man at the center of an assassination plot, Nick puts aside their painful past and enlists her to obtain information by any means necessary, even if it means seducing the enemy agent.
Even if the thought makes his blood boil.
Only by keeping his distance from Mariana these last ten years was he able to pretend indifference to her. With every moment spent with her, he feels his tightly held control slipping . . .
Can she trust the spy who broke her heart?
Mariana spent the last decade forgetting Nick. Now she has the chance to best him at his own game, an opportunity she can’t resist, even as her view of him begins to shift. Increasingly, she wants nothing more than to seduce her own husband . . .
It’s only a matter of time before mad passion ignites, a passion never convincingly extinguished. A passion that insists on surrendering to the yearning of the flesh and, quite possibly, of the heart.

Spoiler Alert Possible This first book of the Shadows and Silk Series was more a spy novel than a romance novel. There was a great deal of intrigue and mystery...almost too much as it had a tendency to drone on and on. It took too long to get to the point and, when it finally did, it took too long talking about it. There were a number of flashbacks that could have been dealt with in a prologue instead. This book could easily have ended by chapter 16. The author drew this book out in such a painful manner, it was almost too difficult to finish. From Chapter 15 on, there were many opportunities to end the story...and end it well. But the reader had to endure another 13 chapters of flashbacks, meandering, and a hodgepodge of unnecessary information. There were so many places this book could have had a great, viable ending. 28 chapters were not needed for this book to end well. While there was an abundance of drama, angst, mystery, and intrigue, there was not so much chemistry, passion, or even romance. Yes, there was some passion...but what is passion without chemistry? The main male character treated the main female character more like a whore than his wife. This was not an enemies-to-lovers romance. It was about a couple who should either never have married or a man who should have never lied to his wife. The ending, although it was somewhat of a HEA, was poorly done. Since I read this online and not the actual book, I don't know that I actually got to the very end. It was in the middle of a thought that just..stopped with a period. Was there supposed to be more? Was there supposed to be an epilogue? Was there supposed to be a better ending? I mean, to just stop in the middle of a scene was badly done. There were things that should have had a resolution that didn't. there were people that the reader needed more information on but didn't receive. The way this book went from beginning to end does not bode well for the rest of the series. Needless to say, this book did not earn enough merits for a Keeper for the Shelves award.
