by Sandra Sookoo

La búsqueda para romper la maldición de una momia se vuelve peligrosa cuando un miembro de la ton acaba muerto. Miles Lawrence Hawkins, quinto conde de Archewyne, está solo y es el último de su estirpe, salvo por una joven hija, y ha hecho las paces con ello… Sin embargo, encontrar inesperadamente a una atractiva ladrona en su biblioteca le hace dudar. Atraído por el loco plan de la dama para recuperar varias momias robadas en todo Londres, incluido el Museo Británico, la acompaña simplemente para ver qué pasará después. El hecho de estar cautivado por su búsqueda e intrigado por su talento para eludir la ley es una distracción muy necesaria del estrés de sus propias desgracias vitales. Lady Emmaline Darling, hábil ladrona e hija única del conde de St. Ives, está bajo la maldición de una momia. Creyéndose condenada por la afición de su padre a sacar antigüedades de Egipto, ha jurado devolver un par de momias a su lugar de descanso eterno para salvar la vida de su padre y la suya propia. Ser atrapada por Miles no entraba en sus planes, ni tampoco caer en su encanto, pero hará cualquier cosa para que él también sea libre de la maldición, ya que sus historias están demasiado conectadas para que sus males sean sólo cuestión de mala suerte. Cuando un miembro de la ton vinculado a ambos acaba muerto y se encuentran las joyas de Emmaline en el lugar de los hechos, Miles está obligado por su honor a proponerle matrimonio y prestarle su protección. A pesar de que ella se niega, el deseo tira de ellos y el escándalo los rodea, y cuando Miles es convocado para embarcarse una vez más en una misión secreta para la Corona, debe desprenderse de todo lo que se convierta en un lastre, pero mantener a Emmaline fuera de los problemas, y de su mente, es más fácil de decir que de hacer.
