George stands by Harry, even as he tries to distance himself from her. When sheep start turning up dead, seemingly posioned, it’s obvious that someone is out of Harry’s blood. The estate that Harry grew up on borders George’s estate and lord there wants nothing more than the death of Harry Pye. What happens may be beyond their control. Even with overprotective brothers and a meddlesome sister that want nothing more than for George to be happy, she knows that they would never support her marrying a steward. George is under no illusion that her and Harry have a future, no matter if she wants it or not. Though she tries to stay away from him, she finds herself unable to do so. Lady Georgina Maitland is intrigued by this steward who seems to have secrets in his eyes. While the lords and ladies might dally with the help, they are never anything more than servants. Having grown up on an estate where the Lord wouldn’t let servants forget their place in life, Harry learned the lesson well.

As a steward for Lady Georgina Maitland, Harry knows his place in life.

Harry Pye was briefly introduced in The Raven Prince. The Prince Trilogy continues with The Leopard Prince. Soon it’s all Georgina can do to keep her head above water and Harry’s out of the noose…without missing another night of love. Still, it’s impossible to conduct a discreet liaison when poisoned sheep, murdered villagers, and an enraged magistrate have the county in an uproar. But Harry has never met a beautiful lady so independent, uninhibited, and eager to be in his arms. Harry has known many aristocrats-including one particular nobleman who is his sworn enemy.

One look at Harry Pye, and Georgina knows she’s not just dealing with a servant, but a man. Wealthy Lady Georgina Maitland doesn’t want a husband, though she could use a good steward to run her estates.
