A historical romance full of longing, scandal, and slow-burning passion.
When bold American heiress Gwenyth St. George arrives in England for the Season, she's expected to do what so many girls like her have done before: marry a title, keep quiet, and smile for the society pages. But Gwenyth wants more than a name and a ring-she wants meaning, freedom, and a love that doesn't come with a price tag.
Then she meets Lord Richard Marable-a brooding, distant aristocrat whose ancestral estate is crumbling around him. To save his family legacy, Richard must marry wealth. To save herself from society's clutches, Gwenyth must play the game. When their paths cross, attraction flares, secrets simmer, and a dangerous waltz begins-one of whispered glances, stolen letters, and nights that threaten to unravel everything they thought they knew about duty and desire.
But in a world gilded with masks and manners, can love survive the truth? Or will one misstep in their delicate dance cost them everything?
