To Kiss a Spy is a dramatic, exciting love story that unfolds against the backdrop of a power struggle for the British throne in the mid-1500's. Lady Penelope Bryanston is a widow haunted by the deaths of her husband and stillborn son. She remembers hearing a baby cry before passing out from the difficult, premature delivery. But her mother-in-law insists that she was hallucinating and even her own friends and family doubt her story. Owen d'Arcy is a French spy who has been instructed to seduce Pen because she is a lady-in-waiting to the Princess Mary. Pen agrees to help him if he will assist in her search for the truth. It is a dangerous path that these two tread and their love is threatened by the lack of trust in this relationship. To Kiss a Spy is a fast, thrilling romance that I devoured in 24 hours. Jane Feather sure can write a compelling book that is near impossible to put down.
