( ) This was a fun read. A young girl trying to overcome her common birth goes to work as a governess for the Marquis of Ebberling. When the Marquis wife winds up dead, the governess has to run for her life. Changing her identity, she hides in the notorious Tantalus Club - a gaming club in the midst of London where she befriends the characters from the earlier books in this series. After many years as a spy serving his country, Nate Stokes becomes the accidental Earl of Westfall after he inherits the position when his cousin drowns. The high society life is an ill-fit for the ex-spy and he takes up the hobby of solving puzzles by finding missing items for the Ton. When the Marquis of Ebberling hires Nate to find a missing governess the task intrigues him and he accepts. With the help of his younger brother, Lori, who is sent home early from Oxford for bad behavior, Nate must find the missing girl before the Marquis remarries. What follows is a fun story of false identities, murder, and a love stronger than societies rules. Can Nate find the governess? If he does is he willing to turn her over to Ebberling? Who really murdered the Marquis's wife? I agree with other reviewers that the ending was a bit rushed, but the story is enjoyable and a fun summer read.

Emily Portsman has a secret, and three years ago she decided the best way to keep it would be to work at the Tantalus Club, a notorious gaming establishment for gentlemen. It's not the sort of work a beautiful, well-bred governess would ever consider-unless she's hiding from her past and a man who wants to destroy her present . . . Nate Stokes, Earl of Westfall, is a supremely accomplished former spy more at home on London's seedy streets than in any glittery ballroom. His peers know him only as a bookish fellow who can find anything-or anyone. When the Marquis of Ebberling hires him to find a murderess, Nate's search leads him to the Tantalus Club and Emily Portsman. In a game where no one is who they seem and when every conversation is a deadly dance of trust and desire, the only thing Nate knows for sure is that once he gets Emily in his arms, he will never let go . . .
