  He thought he knew madness… until he met her.
  
  Pierce Langdon, Viscount Westfall is mad. Everyone knows it. He fell from a
  tree when he was a boy and woke to hear strange voices. When the voices grow
  stronger as he grows older, his family commits him to Bedlam. But what he
  hears are the thoughts of those around him—a gift to be used in service to the
  Order of the M.U.S.E. Until he falls again…this time for a totally unsuitable
  woman.
  
  Lady Nora Claremont hides her heartbreak behind the facade of a carefree
  courtesan. Viscount Westfall is the most confusing man she’s ever met. He
  seems to know exactly what she wants...and what she’s thinking.
  
  Which is a dangerous thing, because what Nora wants is Pierce.
  
  And what she’s thinking could expose her as a traitor to the crown...
