When Alex literally runs into a sinfully attractive, but highly annoying man with the unlikely name of Griffin, she's not at all surprised that he is brother to the suffrage movement's fiercest enemy. But it's not long before Alex realizes that the web of intrigue surrounding Griffin involves more than just fighting the attraction between them. For Griffin isn't just stubborn, he's in deadly peril, and it's up to Alex to prove to him that although she might have lived a sheltered life, even she knows they need to work together if they want to survive the threat that looms over them both. Can Alex abandon a life she's dreamed of to join forces with a man who stands for everything opposite to her? And if not, how is she going to live with a heart that's not just broken, it's crushed beyond repair? this book was originally published as Suffragette in the City. It was heavily revised in 2021.
Author
For as long as she can remember, Katie MacAlister has loved reading. Growing up in a family where a weekly visit to the library was a given, Katie spent much of her time with her nose buried in a book. Despite her love for novels, she didn't think of writing them until she was contracted to write a non-fiction book about software. Since her editor refused to allow her to include either witty dialogue or love scenes in the software book, Katie swiftly resolved to switch to fiction, where she could indulge in world building, tormenting characters, and falling madly in love with all her heroes. Two years after she started writing novels, Katie sold her first romance, Noble Intentions. More than thirty books followed during the years after Noble's publication. Her novels have been translated into numerous languages, been recorded as audiobooks, received several awards, and placed on the New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestseller lists. She also writes for the young adult audience as Katie Maxwell, and for the mystery world as Kate Marsh. Katie lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and dogs, and can often be found lurking around online.
