It' s not a crime to steal a heart. . . Sophie Roseingrave hates nothing more than a swindler. After her family lost their piano shop to a con man in London, they' re trying to start fresh in a new town. Her father is convinced Carrisford is an upright and honest place, but Sophie is not so sure. She has grave suspicions about silk-weaver Madeline Crewe, whose stunning beauty doesn' t hide the fact that she' s up to something. All Maddie Crewe needs is one big score, one grand heist to properly fund the weavers' union forever. She has found her mark in Mr. Giles, a greedy draper, and the entire association of weavers and tailors and clothing merchants has agreed to help her. The very last thing she needs is a small but determined piano-teacher and composer sticking her nose in other people' s business. If Sophie won' t be put off, the only thing to do is to seduce her to the cause. Will Sophie' s scruples force her to confess the plot before Maddie gets her money Or will Maddie lose her nerve along with her heart
