Constantine has been called back home. His cousins have passed and he is now the heir to the duke. When he gets home, he realizes that the duchess is sick and no one seems to be able to help her. Having corresponded with a doctor while in the army, he decided to pay him a visit to see if he might be able to help. What he doesn't know, is that the doctor has passed and he has been writing to the doctor's very knowledgeable daughter. But Constantine doesn't like being lied to...
Nora had worked beside her father for years. So when the letters kept coming and asked for help, she felt she needed to help them...but they all thought she was her father. She never counted on one of them coming to talk to him. When Nora reveals what she has done, Constantine decides that he doesn't need her help and he leaves. But Nora takes it upon herself to get to London to see what she can do for the duchess.
The duke approves of Nora staying and trying to help the duchess. This leads to Nora and Constantine spending time together. While they are attracted to one another, can Constantine get over Nora's deception?
I adored Constantine and Nora's story! I loved that Nora had a skill that was out of the norm for women of that time period. I loved that even though Constantine had dismissed her help in the beginning, she didn't let that stop her from trying to help the duchess. With being a little pushy, she was able to get others to see her worth. Along the way, she was able to get Constantine to loosen up a little bit and get a little bit of that starch out of his collar! This was a great addition to the Rogue Files series!
