The Hopeless Romantic

Amy Warwick has always been a hopeless romantic. An avid book reader for practically all her life, there is nothing she likes more than losing herself in a world of romance and intrigue with damsels in distress and dashing heroes. With a long journey ahead of her, Amy settles back with a new book, a flask of hot chocolate, and her dog, Barney by her side, for a good read. The last thing she expects is for her carriage to be targeted by the highwaymen! But these are no ordinary highwaymen. The men from the Star Elite are more determined than ever to capture the few remaining members of the gang of highwaymen. While their leaders have been killed, those who survive are still robbing coaches. So, the Star Elite are forced to become inventive. The problem is that when Jarvis is tasked with ‘robbing’ this particular carriage’s occupants, he finds far more than an innocent young woman going on a long journey. Shocked to his core, he struggles to focus on the task at hand, and finds himself battling a completely different threat – that to his sanity, especially when the young woman in question doesn’t appear to be phased by the threat of a highwayman and insists upon seeing him as her romantic hero! Events quickly turn dangerous, though, when the real highwaymen turn up, angrier than ever and determined to kill the interlopers who are robbing coaches on their patch. With Amy now plunged into the middle of their investigation, can Jarvis keep her safe and out of the highwaymen’s clutches, or will he end up losing far more than his patience?
