Set in 1766, Missi, the daughter of the Grand duchess of Devonshire, longs for the freedom of travel. But she finds herself saddled with an unsavoury predicament. Trying to avoid the advances of men and her mother, Missi strikes a deal with a mysterious Duke, who seems to be the only man who understands her ideals in a time where she ought not to speak so freely.
I do not own the main characters, Missi and Duke for they belong to their rightful creator Daria Cohen. I do however own some OCs, however some characters have some Historical connotations which may not be accurate as their real counterparts. I also do not own the photos used in the cover and they belong to their rightful owners.
