Some wallflowers bloom at night... A Spindle Cove NovellaViolet Winterbottom is a quiet girl. She speaks six languages, but seldom raises her voice. She endured bitter heartbreak in perfect silence. The gentlemen arent beating down her door. Until the night of the Spindle Cove Christmas ball, when a mysterious stranger crashes into the ballroom and collapses at Violets feet. His coarse attire and near-criminal good looks would put any sensible young lady on her guard. Hes wet, chilled, bleeding, and speaking in an unfamiliar tongue. Only Violet understands him. And she knows hes not what he seems. She has one night to draw forth the secrets of this dangerously handsome rogue. Is he a smuggler? A fugitive? An enemy spy? She needs answers by sunrise, but her captive would rather seduce than confess.
