The sophisticated Cassandra Rivers has always been an outcast in her family, finding herself at odds with the demands of the ton. Uninterested in balls and superficial conversations, she seeks solace in her books rather than the pursuit of a suitor. However, her unbearable mother’s pressure to marry and a fateful mistake bring Cassandra dancing by the side of a surprisingly interesting Lord. If only her sister would not suddenly become interested in him as well...

Can Cassandra finally take a stand for her true desires and bravely pursue romance?

Lucius Spencer, Duke of Richmond, a man of striking charm and noble bearing, remains haunted by his wife’s tragic passing that transformed him into a recluse.

Can this peculiar lady be the one to heal his wounds?

Drawn together by chance, Cassandra and Lucius discover a connection that defies convention in a swirling of wit and tenderness. Torn between their growing feelings and familial expectations, they must confront the barriers and schemes that threaten to keep them apart. Can their budding love withstand the scrutiny of society and the weight of their own pasts? Or will their heartfelt emotion collapse against their will?
