Snakes in the Garden

Following in the footsteps of her late father, Annella Poley is an assassin for the Crown. She's determined to avenge her father's death, no matter what the cost. But then a brawny Highland captain crosses her path and helps her uncover secrets of her past that might save her future…unless she kills him first.    

Marcus Grant would rather be anywhere other than the English court. When his laird orders him to follow a mysterious woman who can fight as well as any man, he's trapped in the last place he wants to be. Marcus knows Annella is not to be trusted, and he plans to expose what she's been hiding—but that's before he risks everything by falling in love.
