Title: A Lady's Revenge
Description: From Publisher's Weekly: Devlyn delves into the arena of spies and covert operatives in this sensuous Regency debut. Cora deBeau, a beautiful British spy, is captured in France and tortured both mentally and physically by the devilish Valère. At last, Guy Trevelyan, earl of Helsford and her friend since childhood, comes to her rescue. As Cora recovers from her near-death experiences, Guy is astounded by Cora’s ability to withstand the demands of undercover work in France. Cora’s skill at defending herself against Valère’s repeated attempts to recapture her makes her unique among Regency protagonists, and Guy’s efforts to keep her from harm are often at odds with her mission to avenge her parents’ deaths. Devlyn reveals the darkness of the spy game and entices readers with a talented and determined heroine.
