Alayna Bordreaux was a testament to one of the bloodiest revolutions of all time- the French Revolution. She watches in horror as the acclaimed mistress of death steals everyone she loves- the guillotine. Finally, toting one more burden in the form of a secret to peaceful, haven-like England, Alayna is taken in by a dying, kindly old man, thinking she will live her life as his nurse. But she is wrong. 
   Alexander Pembroke is a man of many dark sins, and after his father passes away, he finds that many vexing responsibilities fall into his lap- one in particular, a meek but lovely young woman who seems to attract danger- as well as himself. 
  Will they find love, or is it fate that finds them first?
