La reina de Lombard Street

In Victorian England, women are denied many things—including something as fundamental as managing their own money—but Reina Martín has decided it is time for a change. The illegitimate daughter of a Spanish dancer and a wealthy English gentleman, Reina has been raised in luxury yet kept on the fringes of polite society. A brilliant economist, she dreams of opening the first bank for women—a place where they can save, invest, and secure their futures without male oversight. The butler she has just hired, John Pembroke, is tough, astute, and dangerously charming... but he is also an undercover detective. His mission is to investigate Reina’s business partner regarding a financial crime so massive it threatens to destabilize the British economy—and Reina herself is under suspicion.
