His Sinful Touch
Candace Camp
A lost identity. A handsome protector. And a mysterious crime…When an unknown gentleman arrives on his doorstep, Alexander Moreland is astonished to discover that the stranger is a beautiful woman disguised as a man and in great need of his help. The woman remembers nothing except her name, Sabrina, and has only the contents of her pockets as clues to her identity: a handkerchief, a pocket watch, a leather pouch, a torn scrap of paper and a gold ring.Sabrina is certain that she is on the run from someone or something – how else to explain her bruises and the pervasive sense of dread she feels? She’s also certain that she can trust Alex to assist her and is all too aware of the attraction she feels for him. As they race through the streets of Victorian London, Sabrina and Alex must solve the mystery of Sabrina’s past—before whatever she’s running from finds them!
