Read an excerpt:

Josephine placed her hands on the banister, taking in several deep breaths to steady herself. 

“Are you all right?” She heard Charles' familiar voice ask from behind her. 

She spun around to find him a few feet away. She thought about bringing up her misgivings about Duncan, but the thought of saying them out loud seemed silly. Instead she asked, “What are you doing here?”

“I came to check on you.”

“You didn’t think I could do my job?”

He shook his head. “I know you’re capable, but it doesn’t hurt to have a second set of eyes or ears helping you out. I figured with it being a masked ball, I could blend in.”

"You do, you know, blend in,” she said, reaching out and touching the edge of his mask. He looked handsome in a tailored black suit and matching mask. If she didn’t know any better, she would have thought he was a nobleman. “I almost didn’t recognize you.”

“I should have surprised you then,” he said as he moved towards her. “And taken you onto the dance floor.”

“We can dance here,” she whispered, placing her hand on his chest. 

“Would you like that?”

She nodded, allowing him to take her into his arms. 

The muffled sound of the waltz could be heard through the closed doors of the veranda. They swayed to the beat of the music, Charles expertly executing the steps of the dance and guiding Josephine with precision. She reveled in how wonderful it felt to be held in his strong arms, enjoying the forbidden moment she shouldn’t be sharing with him. The longer they danced, the closer they became until they were only inches apart. 

She could tell he wanted to kiss her, and if he tried, she was going to let him. She wanted to feel Charles’ lips on her own, to melt into his arms and find out if they fit together perfectly like she hoped.

“Josephine, we—”

Before he could finish speaking, there was a peel of laughter that interrupted him. 

“Someone’s coming,” he said, releasing her from his grip and stepping back. “We shouldn’t be caught together.”

Without another word, he disappeared into the shadows, leaving Josephine alone. She returned to the ball, trying to push her stolen dance with Charles from her mind with no success.
