Ten Rules for Loving the Wrong Rake
(2026)(A book in the Wicked Windows League series)
A novel by Mihwa Lee
Kit had one order. He broke it the moment he saw her.
Lady Audrey Kendal comes to Silverton Abbey for freedom. What she finds instead is a stranger already in residence. Silent, scarred, impossibly capable, calling himself the gardener.
He's not the gardener.
He gives her one rule: stay away from the hole in the cellar floor.
Her one rule: never follow rules. Not anymore.
He's rude to her before he's ever kind to her. Then he's kind to her in ways that undo her faster than kindness ever should.
She starts listening for his boot steps. She starts arguing back instead of flinching. Somewhere in the middle of all that arguing, she stops being afraid of him and starts being afraid of what she feels instead.
He knows exactly what he was sent to do.
He's starting to think he'd rather die than do it.
