A sudden call for all royal ranks of the British hierarchy to convene in England uprooted the life of Caroline Stevens otherwise known as Lady Viola Atwood. For as long as Caroline could remember she renounced her tie to royalty, being an uptight, do-gooder that ran around in hot dresses, and bowed to men did not appeal to her. Her visit to England revealed that she was a part of a group of women that had been promised to the new Duke. Over her dead body was she going to marry some pish posh asshole.
The Duke of Lancashire was dead, and the eldest son Lord Silas Burton was meant to succeed him. With the condition that he had a suitable young lady to bear the title with him. Silas did not care for women; he saw them as spineless and weak, and their only purpose was to bear children. Will lady Viola change his mind?
A woman that hates men and man that dislikes women, would opposites really attract?
