[The Regency Romance Mysteries 03] • The Rum and The Fox

Lady Keziah Todd is bored to death.

Surely the daughter of a Viscount, even an impoverished one, ought to be able to live a little? But her father, Lord Rennard, is a tyrant, and one that is hard to thwart, as he harshly restricts Keziah's society.

But when Keziah learns of her father's plans to marry the recently widowed and fabulously wealthy Lady Ashwicke, it doesn't take the lovely Lady Todd long to figure out that the woman's only son, Horatio—the new Duke of Chartley, is a fly in her father's ointment.

Horatio might be a pink of the *ton* , but feisty Keziah believes he has more hair than wit and is no match for her cunning father. Deciding that saving a Duke's life ought to be adventure enough for any young woman, Keziah takes a risk, and Horatio's life in her hands.
