Covenant

Sebastian Whitmore turned love into a weapon. He aimed it at the wrong woman.

The photograph arrives with no return address: Charlotte Vance kissing Inspector Edmund Reid, captured through the garden hedge, captioned in her ex-fiancé's elegant hand. The message is unmistakable. He's watching. He's close. He can reach them whenever he wants.

Reid has already given up everything for her-his warrant card, his reputation, twenty years at Scotland Yard-and Sebastian intends to make them both pay for it. The stolen image hits the scandal sheets. A bill moves through Parliament that would cage everyone with magic in their blood. Every blow lands on Reid first. He takes them and stands closer.

Charlotte survived betrayal once by making herself invisible, and hiding would be safer now. Instead, she puts her name in print beside Reid's for all of London to read. Sebastian's answer is a Parliament visitor's pass, delivered to her doorstep in his own hand: I'll see you there.

Will loving Reid in the open break Sebastian's hold, or has Charlotte just accepted an invitation to her own destruction? Grab Covenant for a Victorian gothic romance where love refuses to hide.
