Arriving in a cloak of mystery, London Theater's newest actress, Annabelle Taylor, quickly became known as "The Silver Swan." While she loved performing for her adoring audiences every night, Annabelle secretly longed to draw out the aristocratic father who abandoned her and her mother years ago.

Sent to unmask her identity, Colin Jeffreys, Marquis of Hampden, had only his dashing good looks and desirable kisses to use as bait. Sparring with wit and half-truths, Colin and Annabelle soon realized what they truly wanted was a night of passion. But when Annabelle's vengeful quest traps her in a nest of deceit and treachery, she realizes she must place her faith in Colin-a man she doesn't trust, but can't resist.
