Discovering a ooch bearing the insignia of Gaiel, Lord Morecombe, hidden among the child’s clothing, she is certain the dissolute rake is to blame.

Gaiel is intrigued by the vivacity in Thea’s flashing gray eyes when she accuses him of fathering the orphan, even as he adamantly maintains his innocence. The ooch is one he remembers all too well, however, and Gaiel is determined to find the mother of the missing child. As the mystery around the baby deepens, Gaiel is continually thrown together with Thea—and finds himself growing more entranced every day. _x000D_
