These strangers must go undercover as husband-and-wife domestic servants to a former Confederate soldier suspected of the theft. The Pinkerton Detective Agency recruits New Orleans scammer Raven Moreau and Boston businessman Braxton Steele to aide in its latest investigation, threatening false imprisonment if the unlikely duo fails to comply. Thank you avonbooks and netgalley for the e-ARC for my honest and voluntary review.A con artist and a tailor join forces to retrieve a stolen copy of the Declaration of Independence in Jenkins’s characteristically brilliant finale to the Women Who Dare series (after Wild Rain), which returns to post–Civil War America and introduces a new pair of bold Black protagonists whom readers will love. Masquerading as a valet/driver, Brax is also supposed to be her “husband.” He has his own reasons for doing this job, but when their pretend marriage ignites into fiery passion, they’ll have to put everything-including their hearts-on the line. Her partner is the too handsome Braxton Steel. She comes from a long line of grifters and couldn’t be prouder…Until she’s forced to help the government.Ī former Confederate official is suspected of stealing the Declaration of Independence, and Raven, posing as his housekeeper, is tasked with getting it back. Lying and cheating may be sins to some people, but for Raven Moreaux, it is a way of life. The newest novel in USA Today bestselling author Beverly Jenkins’s compelling Women Who Dare series features a fearless grifter who goes undercover to reclaim the stolen Declaration of Independence. I’ve spent a night and tried to do as much as I could while on a cross country road trip but would love to go back. ❓ Have you been to New Orleans? The mc is from New Orleans. They had completely different upbringings and lifes. The romance was definitely opposites attract. Honestly, the people they were swindling from what they said we’re using their money for horrible illegal things so they were defunding them for a bit. I liked the undercover work and the jobs they would pull to get their money. You are supposed to hate her but she is all that’s wrong with 1878 and topped with a cherry. I mean all the statues of confederate losers should be removed and ladies like that one who funded them being put up should’ve been stopped. Oh goodness the lady they have to work for is a piece of entitled traa- work. They have to pretend to be married and only have one bed.

She has to team up with a handsome rich guy.

Raven is a strong character that is forced into helping to obtain a copy of the Declaration of the Independence.
