with an impossible dilemma: enter a life of petty crime or watch her family succumb to poverty. But once her

fiancée learns of her descent into danger - and of the strange, new powers she's discovered - saving her

family may come at the high price of her heart.

When Lord Benjamin Archer's one chance for redemption is destroyed by his enemy, Hector Ellis, he vows to take what Ellis values most - his daughter Miranda. Forced to hide his face behind masks, Archer travels the world hoping to escape the curse that plagues him so that he can finally claim his prize. But once Archer returns home to London, will it be revenge he seeks? Or will the flame-haired beauty ignite new, undeniable desires?
