Lady Eliza Haverly was born into privilege...and erased from it.
At twenty-two, she has never had a debut, never been presented to the Queen, and has never once been mentioned in Lady Whistledown's scandal sheet. Confined to the edges of ballrooms in her wheelchair and treated by her mother as a shameful secret, Eliza has learned to make herself invisible.
She watches life happen around her and finds joy in observing the stories of others - especially love stories. Real ones.
Love, however, is not something she expects for herself.
Until one night, where a single smile drew the attention of a gallant gentleman. For the first time, she doesn't feel like she is part of the furniture.
Suddenly, after a lifetime of being told she would only ever be pitied, Eliza begins to wonder if she might be worthy of something far more dangerous...
A love story of her very own.
