Her mission targets Cassian Grey, a former spy turned prime suspect in a treason investigation, pushing her to gather evidence while resisting his sharp scrutiny. As his wounded past and guarded nature clash with her instinct to heal, attraction and rivalry deepen. The story blends historical romance, covert schemes, and grumpy/sunshine tension as both confront what they cannot easily control.","HER TEMPTING TRAITOR  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCopyright © 2025, Caroline Lee [Caroline@CarolineLeeRomance.com](Caroline@CarolineLeeRomance.com)  \nALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

She’s proud of her skills, respected for her work, and perfectly content with a life spent healing animals. So why then did she agree to help her uncle with his investigation?  \nBecause of the pregnant elephant, of course.  \nUnder the guise of treating an ailing pachyderm, Gabby infiltrates Inverlochy Castle, where Cassian Grey—former spy, current prime suspect—is hiding. Her task? Get close, dig up evidence of treason, and expose his secrets. Simple.  \nBut Cassian is anything but simple. Brooding, sharp-eyed, and far too perceptive, he sees through her charm. Worse, he intrigues her just as much as he frustrates her. His wounded leg and violent past should make him untouchable, yet something in him calls to her instincts—to heal, to understand, to get under his skin. Well. At the very least, his clothes.  \nCassian has spent a lifetime keeping people out, and Gabby has never met a puzzle she couldn’t unravel. The question is: which of them will break first?  \nWarning: Another super-spicy adventure of convoluted schemes and hilarious grumpy/sunshine hijinks from the undisputed queen of historical rom-coms!  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nOnce upon a time, I wrote a series called Surprise! Dukes. It was about six dudes who unexpectedly became Dukes, much to their surprise. They were all Scottish. They were all hot and buff and syphilis-free. And they were all ex-spies who once worked for the same evil man, Blackrose. (Yes, the coincidences were ridiculous. That was part of the joke.) Over the course of six books, they worked together to bring Blackrose to justice—and I gotta admit, it was a pretty epic tale, full of twists and turns and false leads. I’m proud of it.  \nBut none of that is important for this series. For this series, the only thing you need to know is how the hell all these people are related. The heroes and heroines of Surprised Heirs are the children from the last series, and Bull is the one who ties them all together.  \nWe met Bull in The Sinner ’s Tempting Captor, when he was introduced asthe heroine’s younger bastard brother. Bull is the youngest natural son of the old Duke of Exingham (a real arsehole, now dead), and the younger brother of the current Duke of Exingham ( The Duke’s Deceitful Governess) . His mother is Felicity/Flick, who is now married to the current Duke of Peasgoode ( The Duke’s Counterfeit Wife) .  \nIn The Duke’s Counterfeit Wife, we meet Bull’s best friend, Marcia, and her brother Rupert, who are the children of the hero. The three of them set their parents up in an elaborate fake relati","cbCaimYsO0DRktfc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimYsO0DRktfc","pdf",1457590,268,"English","en",105,"# About this book\n## Letter to the
