Thief of Love

the long version

In a moment of weakness, Lady Anna Farrant spirited away the jeweled stickpin instead of seeking out its rightful owner. After all, she was in such desperate straits . . . But Anna hadn't the heart to go through with her deception. She returned the bauble—and discovered that it belonged to none other than the arrogantly handsome Lord Crewe. Anna's mistake comes back to haunt her, though—as she is falsely accused of another theft. No matter what her circumstances, Anna would never again think of stealing. But she cannot realize that she has already stolen Lord Crewe's heart—and unlike his stickpin, it can never be returned.
