The Spy's Reward
Nathan Meyer is used to his family's less-than-subtle efforts to find him a new wife. So when he arrives in France to escort Diana Hart and her mother Abigail back to England, he realizes that someone is trying to pair him up with Diana. But Nathan has no interest in the beautiful, spoiled, and flirtatious Diana; he is intrigued with the sharp-witted, tart-tongued Abigail, who has no intention of accepting his offer to escort them home. Everything quickly changes, however, when Napoleon escapes from Elba, and Abigail and Diana find themselves trapped in France with no one to turn to but Nathan. Abrams continues her excellent series of historical Regencies set in England and France during the Napoleonic Wars with this captivating tale of danger and desire in which she expertly combines a plot rich in adventure and intrigue, a vividly detailed historical setting, a sweetly subtle romance, and dry humor to create a delectable romance.John CharlesCopyright © American Library Association.
