Not Quite a Baroness - The Boston Heiresses, #2

The second book in this tantalizing new series about independent heroines forging a new path for women in 1890s America. A feisty baroness who will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. Her Royal Highness, Princess Elizabeth Armstrong-Leeds, Baroness Esk, is a suspect in the murder of her kidnapper. Not only does she risk a ruined reputation in the eyes of Boston's elite, Libby may also have to risk her life to solve this heinous crime.
When the lead detective on the case doesn't believe in her innocence, what choice does she have but to take matters into her own hands? A Viscount whose reputation for detecting is about to be challenged. The Right Honorable Viscount Henry DeHavillend has put his family heritage aside to pursue a career as a private detective. He has already made a name among Boston's elite as the go-to investigator when things go awry.
But when he meets Libby Armstrong-Leeds, his growing feelings for the baroness make finding the person who is trying to set her up, all the more difficult. Especially when her actions seem to court danger rather than shy from it.
