The Secret Courier (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798256107598)

A series of disappearances. A pretend engagement. A soldier and a courier who have to solve a mystery together. What could go wrong?

New Jersey, 1777. Sergeant Will Townsend just wants to be done with this assignment and forget about the past. He was kidnapped several months before, and it left physical and emotional scars. When another man is kidnapped under similar circumstances, Will's commanding officer assigns him to investigate. Can he complete his assignment, or will more people disappear?

Known only as the Couriers, a network of women on the Atlantic coast delivers supplies to the American troops. Charity Marshall, a gunsmith, has spent months secretly delivering supplies to American soldiers, despite the rest of her family supporting the Crown. But her supplies have been disappearing as well. When Will's investigation puts him into Charity's path, they decide they're better off working together. And what better cover for their investigation than a pretend engagement?

Escape to America's beginnings in this closed-door historical romance. There's action. There's adventure. There are women who make rifles and men who talk about their feelings. This is the second in the Couriers series, but can be read as a standalone.
