Betraying The Highwayman‪ ‬

When Miss Elenore Ogglesby ran away from her ward, the Duke of Kerrington, she had one goal in mind—sail to America. It didn't take her long, however, to realize the foolhardiness of her impulsiveness. There was no way a single, unchaperoned lady would be able to sail to America without raising suspicion. So, when she is presented with the opportunity to disguise as a nun in order to obtain her freedom, she can't refuse. But, it seems as though fate is destined to intervene.

Disguised as a nun, Elenore gets whisked away by a highwayman who almost runs her off the road in the dark of night. Unwilling to divulge her true identity to the man and risk being returned to the Duke of Kerrington, she continues her farce as Sister Genevieve. The unlikely encounter leaves Elenore caring for a sickly Earl in exchange for passage to America . It doesn't take her long to question her decision to strike up a deal with the mysterious highwayman when she is stuck caring for the obnoxious and demanding Lord Brattondale day in and day out. She starts doubting her decision to trust the man she hardly knows when she finds out that he has a secret of his own.

A double deception.

When Elenore discovers they highwayman's secret, she finds herself being pulled into an even grander scheme all the while struggling to keep her identity a secret as she finds herself falling in love with the mysterious man.
