Lord Drake Byron has no time in his busy life to worry about taking a wife. He is more interested in the unbreakable code he has developed to defeat Napoleon’s forces. Little does he know that the irresistibly lovely new housekeeper he’s hired is really a French spy sent to retrieve the code.

Sebastianne Dumont is not at all who she seems to be. Forced to steal the code to save her family, her mission takes an even more dangerous turn when she falls in love with the surprisingly tempting man she must ultimately betray. And if she succeeds in stealing the code, will she also steal Lord Drake’s heart, while leaving her own behind?
