A masquerade ball sets the stage for an American wallflower’s revenge against an English noble, only to be complicated by unexpected love…
American Eva Westbrook has had enough of English aristocrats looking down their snooty noses at her. Among these elite nobles is her neighbor, Peter Hartigan, a notorious rake she believes played a part in her cousin's humiliation a few years ago. Disguised as a mysterious masked woman and seeking reprisal, Eva sneaks into a masquerade ball that Peter is hosting.
As Eva spends more time with Peter, she realizes he may not be the heartless blackguard she thought he was. She becomes torn between her duty to avenge the past pain and suffering of her dear cousin and the unexpected feelings for the very man who’d caused it.
As they dance the midnight waltz, Eva and Peter engage in a dangerous game of deception and desire. Eva struggles to maintain her facade while battling her growing attraction to Peter. Meanwhile, Peter is captivated by the enigmatic woman in his arms and is determined to uncover her true identity.
With her blossoming feelings conflicting with a quest for vengeance, will Eva decide to follow through with her vendetta or let go of the past and take a chance on a future with Peter?

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars -
4 1/2 stars. I loved the concept of revenge becoming love. Eva wanted to avenge her cousin before she went home. As she spoke with Peter, Eva learned that he was not really a bad person. She felt for him in regard to his injury and allowed herself to admit she was wrong, then it blew up. Peter did not remember causing a broken heart because of his head injury. His heart felt a strong pull toward Eva, despite the fact that she kept her identity secret the entire time they spent together. Once he realized who she was and her reason for being there, anger made him ugly. As things worked out, I enjoyed his admitting falling in love with Eva. Worth the read.
I received an ARC, and this is my unsolicited review.
