Joanna Maitland

His Silken Seduction Joanna Maitland

Wounded. Abandoned. In the Enemy's Bed.

Baron Ben Dexter and Lord Jack Aikenhead land in Mediterranean France, on a vital spying mission for Wellington, just as Napoleon escapes from Elba to threaten the peace of Europe once again. As the pair race across war-torn France, Ben is badly wounded. His disguise, as a German, may be slipping. He is left in Lyons, in the care of Suzanne Grolier, a beautiful silk weaver with secrets of her own.

Suzanne is his loving, caring nurse. Every day her hands caress his battered flesh. Her touch is driving him wild. But her family are Bonapartists. She must not discover who he is. For surely she will betray him?

Torn between duty and desire, will Ben dare to trust her with his life, his mission, and his heart?

This first print edition of His Silken Seduction has been revised and much expanded from the short novella originally published in 2009, in ebook only, by Harlequin Mills & Boon Ltd
