Summary
The conductor clears his throat. “It appears we have… un petit problème.”
But Nesta is already looking past him into the compartment, and she sees the problem immediately, and it’s not petit by any means.
A man occupies the space, sprawled across one of the two facing bench seats with his long legs stretched out, boot heels scuffing the burgundy carpet. He wears dark trousers that have seen better days, and a waistcoat over a white shirt with the sleeves rolled to his elbows. A brown tweed jacket hangs from a hook beside the window. His hair, dark and too long, falls along a face that looks carved from rough stone, all hard angles and a shadow of stubble along his jaw. As Nesta and the conductor appear in the doorway, he glances up from the small leather-bound book in his hands, and she finds herself looking into hazel eyes that gleam with unmistakable amusement.
“Well,” he says, voice low and rough around the edges, accented with something she can’t quite place. “This is unexpected.”

When Nesta Archeron boards the Orient Express in a desperate attempt to flee scandal, she's forced to share a compartment with a large, insolent scoundrel. What could go wrong?
