Lady Be Good by Meredith Duran

5.0

This was my second read of this book! Lilah is from a prominent London crime family, but she's been trying her best to live on the straight and narrow apart from them. Her uncle ropes her into stealing from the owner of the auction house she works at, and she's caught by Christian Stratton, a celebrated veteran.

The gallant war hero that Christian "Kit" Stratton presents in the broadsheets is mostly fiction. In reality, Christian is a cynical and jaded man that has no qualms about blackmailing Lilah into helping him with a dangerous trap he sets for an enemy. Initially his attraction to Lilah is a plus, but he eventually finds out he's entangled the love of his life into a violent scheme with potentially disastrous consequences.
