She valued her independence. He avoided attachment. Until one runaway girl brought their worlds colliding.
Lady Clarissa Harborough has carved out a life of independence, content with quiet seasons, loyal friends, travel, and the freedom she never intends to surrender. But when a frightened debutante appears at her door, Clarissa’s tranquil winter is upended, drawing her into responsibility and suspicion.
Then arrives Gregory Carstairs, Duke of Clarenby, to retrieve his runaway niece. Blunt, guarded, and far too direct for Clarissa’s liking, he challenges her at every turn. Their sharp exchanges bristle with tension, yet beneath each clash lingers a pull neither is willing to name.
Bound by circumstance, their days unfold in close quarters as whispered confidences and stolen moments draw them closer, testing Clarissa’s resolve and Gregory’s restraint. But when Clarissa falls under suspicion in Gregory’s secret mission, every stolen moment entangles the conflict even more.
Will Gregory choose between duty to the Crown…or the love he never intended to claim?
