Not of his own accord, but the insistence of his mother, the Dowager Duchess. Garrick has been running his Duchy for a few years, alone, with the exception of a few tussles under the sheets. Since he isn't completely opposed to the idea of marriage, he agrees, but no one has sparked his interest. That is until his married sister, Lady Victoria visits with her husband, the Viscount, and Garrick lays eyes on her lady's maid. Estelle Morrow Blythe has spent her life in service of others.

"Dahlia Blossom. Don't let the name fool you. She's better known as the Black Dahlia. And she didn't earn that nickname by smiling and looking pretty." "She sure knows how to perform for the camera."
