| Completed | "I've never been more certain of anything in my life, Kitten. You...were made for me." Elijah Wright, the Duke of Kent, grew up learning all about duty, responsibility, and honor. When his father died, it was time for him to step up and finally uphold the family title. First thing his mother wanted was simple: an arranged marriage. As the Christmas wedding was approaching, he got more uncomfortable with marrying Lady Elizabeth Coleman, who was a complete stranger to him. With the help of his best friend, Will, Elijah flees his home, hoping to temporarily escape his forced reality. Even though he plans on following through with the wedding, everything is called into question when he rescues a fiery redhead from highwaymen. Katherine Bennet spent her days journaling and dreaming about getting out of her small-town home. When an opportunity came knocking for her to get a maid's position for the Duke of Kent, she accepted it in a heartbeat. Renting a mail coach, she set off to the Kent Estate, ready to start this new chapter in her life. A chapter, unfortunately, that was interrupted by highwaymen attempting to rob her. That was until a stranger on a horse came to her rescue, only to end up badly injured in the process. With the impending snowstorm on the horizon, Katherine and Elijah must seek shelter in an abandoned cabin. As these two strangers get to know each other, will they be able to resist the strong connection they feel for each other? When the snowstorm finally ends, Elijah has a choice to make: Was he going to follow his heart?

Jasper Harrington doesn't enjoy attending social occasions especially when opinionated women think that it is acceptable to criticise him, but there is something about Eliza that he can't quite bear to part with. Are this odd couple going to find a happy ever after together or apart?
