Flame-haired Scottish beauty Lady Emma Campbell had wealth and a title, but she ran the family banking empire with a fierce dedication born of hard work and social responsibility. As a friend, she was true blue, and she couldn't refuse her lifelong Romanian chum's desperate plea to defect, even if it meant putting her own life in danger--and in the hands of American agent Tyler Davis, who had no tolerance for polished ladies playing deadly games.
A man who'd had to struggle all his life, Tyler could neither forget Emma's wealth nor forgive it. He'd found it easy to dislike his image of "Lady" Emma, but the beautiful, brainy woman behind the money and position was much too real ... and all too desirable.
3.25 stars This one had such a prejudiced hero, who had such preconceived notions about the heroine and her station in life. I did like she called him on it and put him in place. All those were his insecurities and inadequacies . The heroine came from wealth but was grounded and had worked hard for where she was in life. When an old school friend contacted her, the hero an agent came into her life with all his biases. The story was interesting even though I felt the heroine deserved better.
