Beautiful Frenchwoman Gabrielle Rochon, risking her life to help the British army by smuggling gold across France to the Duke of Wellington's headquarters in Spain, pretends to be the wife of an arrogant Colonel to safely carry out the mission, which results in undeniable passion. Original.

I read this book a while back and decided to reread since it was not the typical historical romance novel that I normally go to. The main characters are Gabrielle Rochon, a circus owner, and Leo Branford, a colonel. They must work together to bring the gold to Spanish territory and avoid suspicious from Napoleon's army.

I enjoyed the dynamics between Gabrielle and Leo. She is someone very independent and even though Leo is used to taking charge, he slowly relents to her. He is very observant in that he recognizes the talents among Gabrielle's brothers. There were definitely several characters who were annoying.

Overall, a good book with a unique storyline.
