Mary Jo Putney's "Angel Rogue" - #4 in the Fallen Angels series
Loved this one! Terrific road story of the hero and heroine wending their way down to London from Yorkshire, trying to evade some apparent villains who want to return the heroine to her uncle dead or alive, and also being chased, unbeknownst to them, by the hero's brother and the heroine's aunt (who have a delightful secondary romance during the course of the story). The heroine wants to find out why her father died in London, and the hero, whom she stumbles across on a path in some woods, decides to accompany her because he's at loose ends in his life. Really enjoyable, with some angst, some humour, some very nice love scenes, lots of adventure and excitement, and last but not least, a fabulous hero and heroine. Not one false note or bad scene, which I kind of dread when I start a Putney book these days, in the entire story.
