As she is plunged into danger, she seeks help from the dashing Lieutenant Jonathan Birch, a police officer she has long admired from afar.

Jonathan has harbored powerful feelings toward Katherine for years but never acted on them, knowing his dark history is something she could never abide. Now, with her safety on the line, he works alongside her through the nights as they unravel the criminal conspiracy that threatens her. And throughout it all, Jonathan fears what will happen should Katherine ever learn his deepest secrets.

Join award-winning author Elizabeth Camden for a sweeping and romantic adventure of dangerous secrets and wounded hearts fighting to overcome the darkness while the rest of the city sleeps.

This was good, just not something I normally would read and it dragged on a little. There was some humor, lots of romance, no sex....lol. Again, outside my realm of reading. There was lots of mystery and it was very neat to read about how things were back in the 1900's. It did drag in spots and had to skip through but all in all, glad I read.
