"'Tis time to let someone take care of ye, lass." He stared into her moss-green eyes and rasped, "Let it be me."
In this Regency Romance, O'Malley must convince the angel of the streets that the truth he suspects she hides changes nothing. He will stand by his vow to protect her, to defend her, and to love her with every fiber of his being.
Emmett O'Malley will move Heaven and Earth to find and punish the man who kidnapped Michaela.
O'Malley plans to take justice into his own hands. He suspects there is more than compassion and the need to heal that compels the woman he has come to love to rescue others who have been unwilling victims. He will extract more than a bloody pound of flesh from the lord responsible for taking what Michaela refused to give.
Working alongside the angel of the streets has opened O'Malley's eyes and his heart to someone who shares the same need to heal others. They both believe that every life has worth and everyone deserves a second chance...until Michaela is abducted, and he suspects she is hiding something from him.
A decade is a long time to keep a secret... Michaela will take hers to the grave!
Her life changes forever the night the man her father approved of violates her. To her horror, Michaela glimpses the monster he is a heartbeat before he steals her virtue, destroys her hopes, and crushes her dreams.
She vows never to speak his name again, nor tell a soul what he has done. She discovers an inner strength and calling to help heal others the only way she can, by leading a double life. On the surface she is the reserved daughter of a well-known physician. Beneath is a woman who works tirelessly in the stews of London, doing all in her power to heal and help those society shuns-other women who have had their future, good name, and reputation stripped from them without their consent. She will not let them be broken!
