***** FREE ON KINDLE UNLIMITED *****

Lady Elizabeth Chartwell has avoided London since her first Season, which ended with the loss of the man she thought the love of her life, and her belief that no man could ever be trusted. But now, her sister has persuaded her to return to London, to be seen in society again. Elizabeth is intent upon enjoying herself, whilst avoiding her sister’s matchmaking attempts, and then retiring to the country again. An excellent plan - which seems far less achievable from the moment that the Duke of Blackstone saves her nephew’s life.

Gavin Villiers, the Duke of Blackstone, spent his time at university behaving as a rake, well loved within society, and rather irresponsible in all areas of his life - until his father’s death brought him the title, and a moment of painful self-awareness. The decisions he made then have made him a far better man, but at a high price. Those decisions forced him to walk away from the woman he loved. Now back in London after a year of mourning, and two more of travelling, the last thing he expected was to come face to face with her – and to find that the spark between them is as strong as ever.

When a stolen kiss changes everything, he is forced to act, but the consequences are far reaching, and, with the unexpected appearance of someone from his past, he finds himself on the verge of losing everything he has worked for, everything he cares about, again.

Can Elizabeth learn to trust again, and seize the love she’d thought irretrievably lost?

Can Gavin overcome old habits, and prove himself worthy of love?

Or will the mistakes of the past drive them apart forever?
