A scandalous lady. A virtuous gentleman. And rules that need to be broken.
Once upon a time, passionate DIANA LAWSON was young and naive and in love…with a man who barely knew she existed. Foolishly, she pursued him, daring to believe that love would conquer all.
But it didn’t. Instead, it saw her ruined in the eyes of society.
Disgraced and broken-hearted, Diana agreed to a marriage of convenience in order to save what was left of her reputation. Her heart, however, remained broken beyond repair, her faith in the world shattered and even the faintest hope for a happy future all but buried. Still, after her husband’s passing, Diana comes to realise that she has nothing left to lose. Then why not live on her own terms?
ARTHUR ABBOTT, EARL OF STANHOPE, is a stickler for propriety and has never met a rule he did not feel compelled to uphold. After all, what would society be without rules? They provide order and stability, guide people’s behaviour and prevent unpleasant surprises. Indeed, rules are the foundation upon which society is built. They’re fundamental and must be upheld at all cost.
Of that Arthur is certain. At least, until his path crosses that of a young widow with a rather daring spirit. What is a man to do when for the first time in his life his beloved rules stand in the way of his heart’s desire?
