Gilded Cage
Lilywhite Boys, Book 2
Once upon a time a boy from a noble family fell in love with a girl from the gutter. It went as badly as you’d expect.
Seventeen years later, Susan Lazarus is a renowned detective, and Templeton Lane is a jewel thief. She’s tried to arrest him, and she’s tried to shoot him. They’ve never tried to talk.
Then Templeton is accused of a vicious double murder. Now there’s a manhunt out for him, the ports are watched, and even his best friends have turned their backs. If he can’t clear his name, he’ll hang.
There’s only one person in England who might help Templeton now…assuming she doesn’t want to kill him herself.

“Sharp humor and snappy dialogue permeate this book … It is a delight to see Susan and James take flight together, and their romance is very satisfying.”
“Chock full of brilliant cameos, sly references to earlier novels, and characters you can’t help but love – and root for. The mystery is clever and satisfying, and the romance… well, it’s lovely.”
