One Night with a Scoundrel (Escape with a Scoundrel, #3) / Escape with a Scoundrel (ePub)

One smuggler. One princess. One stolen jewel. One night that leads to breathtaking adventure and scandalous romance…

Disguised as a lowly dancing girl, Princess Ashiana sets out to reclaim a priceless jewel stolen from her family by notorious English smuggler Saxon D'Avenant. But when her secret mission goes awry, she finds herself trapped aboard Saxon's ship-and swept into passion in her enemy's arms. From an emperor's royal palace to the fog-shadowed streets of London, the princess and her seafaring scoundrel are caught up in dangerous secrets, swashbuckling adventure…and a forbidden love that may cost them everything.
