When the overindulged son of a duke meets a feisty bohemian beauty, two opposite worlds collide. But it doesn't matter how ill-suited they are for one another, Aiden and Amalia can't prevent their feelings from growing.

• • •

England, 1790.

Aiden Langston, Earl Graham, future Duke of Leeds, is a jaded young man with everything to lose.

Amalia Romero is a proud Bohemian who needs no one's help despite having next to nothing.

After one mistake too many, Aiden is forced into exile for the summer. The boredom of the countryside nearly drives him mad until he meets Amalia, whom he hires to give him violin lessons.

Amalia has always longed for freedom, and this deal is a golden opportunity to finally obtain it. Her desire for a lonesome life soon wavers, subdued by Aiden's effortless charm.

Their shared love for music opens a doorway to more, and before long and despite their great differences, Aiden and Amalia can't deny this is much more than a convenient deal. But in a society that would never allow such a union, can things truly work out between them?
