Her Other Thief (Zebra Regency Romance)

From Booklist Still under the cloud of shame caused by her brother’s turn to crime, Lucy Bowes accompanies her friend, the new Marchioness of Dash, to the country. Lucy soon discovers that yet another criminal is afoot, a masked man who steals into the house at night and, little by little, steals her heart. It turns out that her mysterious thief is none other than their neighbor, Captain Ewan Sandeford, who, happily, has an honorable agenda in carrying out his masquerade. But the last thing he needs is an overprotective Lucy thwarting his plans. If only Miss Bowes weren’t so observant, maddening, and irresistible. Garland’s sequel to The Unexpected Sister [BKL Mr 1 04] proves that “still waters run deep.” In the best tradition of Regency romance, the reserved, witty wordplay belies the swirling emotions and subtle sensuality underneath.
