The Black Rose

Though Lucien Charbonneau was born a noble, he'd implemented plans to bring about galactic revolution. He wore two faces, that of an effete aristocrat and that of someone darker, more mysterious. He had subtle yet potent charms, and he played at deception with the same skills that he might caress a lover. And though Lucien was betrothed, he swore not even his beautiful fiance would ever learn his heart's secret, that of...The Black Rose.. Alexandra Fallon had of course heard of that infamous spy, but her own interests were far less political. When interplanetary concerns forced her to marry, the man who came to her bed was in for a rude awakening. But the shadowy hunk who appeared lit a passion hotter than a thousand suns - and in its fiery glow, both she and Lucien would learn that between lovers no secrets could remain in darkness.
