Crooked Hearts (Topaz Historical Romances)

Plot

Wanted: Reuben Jones. Last seen masquerading as a blind Spanish aristocrat, he walks on the wrong side of the law-a card shark, a master of deception, and a gentleman thief with a shady past long dead, buried, and forgotten. Or so he thought... Wanted: Grace Russell. Last seen disguised as a pious Catholic nun, her real habits are another story-and heaven help any man who stands in her way. The loaded silver derringer strapped to her thigh is only the first warning: this sister plays rough... As two crooked hearts go, Reuben and Grace are made for each other. But in the gambling dens and sinful backstreets of 1880s San Francisco, it's love-not larceny-that's about to become the most dangerous and delicious game they've ever played...
