Ella Rayette hadn't felt the touch of fine clothes or known financial security since the night her father died. Now, all grown up and struggling to survive the hells of London's gambling district, all of Ella's best efforts have come down to this: a cruel beating at the hands of her employer, surrounded by the jeering patrons she served.
Or, at least, it would have come to that if not for the angel who saved her. He whisked her out of Hell, took her home in a fine carriage, gave her two pounds to help stave back the wolf of starvation, and even offered her a job caring for his invalid sister. A job! Had she known he would do that, she never would have stolen his pocket watch.
Though she struggled not to feel badly about the theft, Ella needed the money far more than her angel did. And really, what were the chances she'd ever see him again anyway?
