Clever and outspoken, Lady Verity Ashworth would rather discuss botany than endure the marriage mart her mother holds so dear. She hopes to find someone who truly understands her, and will not settle for less. Suddenly, a single misunderstood evening in a quiet conservatory changes everything. Now bound to a brooding duke she barely knows, Verity wonders whether there might be more to her new husband than the cold reserve he shows to the world…

Sebastian Trevelyan, Duke of Ravencourt, came to London for a fortune, not a wife. Shadowed by whispers about his first duchess and wary after a marriage that left him with distrust, he guards his secrets and his young daughter behind locked doors. Yet, his clever bride sees through him with surprising ease, drawing warmth from a heart he believed long closed. The more genuine Verity proves, the more his guard slips, but one secret still stands between them…

As Verity and Sebastian grow closer, she discovers a bundle of hidden letters that reveal the secret behind his guarded heart. However, someone inside the house will do anything to keep them apart. Can two reluctant strangers build real love from a forced match, before it becomes destroyed?
