M.A. Nichols

A calculated scheme. An unexpected attraction. And a secret that could ruin them all.

​

Jonathan Hatcher is desperate. His family’s business is failing, and he needs money fast. One good investment, one strong return, and everything will be set to rights. But the most promising venture in London is as exclusive as it is lucrative, and try as he might, he cannot forge a connection with the man whose touch turns every investment into gold.

​

A man who is forever out of reach.

​

But his daughter isn’t.

​

A few compliments. A few outings. A few dances. Then the doors will open.

But Nora Eden has spent her life dodging fortune hunters and opportunists who view her as nothing but a gateway into her father’s good graces—men far more appealing than Jonathan Hatcher. Yet his clumsy attempts are exceptionally entertaining, and Nora could do with a bit of fun.

​

Just how far is he willing to go? And why is she reluctant to see it end?

​

But as the roles between cat and mouse begin to blur, a greater secret looms—one that threatens far more than their game and will destroy more than their hearts…
