Trapped by Scandal

Trapped by Scandal is the second book of the series by Jane Feather. The second book can also be read alone. It is during the French revolution and the main characters, Hero and William meet quite by accident as both are trying to find people to save them. William recognizes right away that Hero is a woman and not meant for what she is doing, but Hero answers to no one, not even her twin. Both are strong willed people who put others first and both are falling for the other. This is a fun, historical read and has a nice story line. *JK*
