New Edition - Released December 2025
A hidden truth. A devilishly handsome duke. A love caught between scandal and secrets.
Lady Ophelia Winter is content with her life-except for the name she despises and the endless suitors she rejects. Her father, the Viscount of Hethersett, is determined to see her wed, but Ophelia's stubborn independence leaves him exasperated.
But her world is thrown into turmoil when a letter exposes a shocking truth about her heritage, shattering everything she thought she knew. Struggling to accept her new reality, she soon clashes with the ton-especially over Lord Garrett Haywood, the Duke of Ashford. Devilishly handsome, rumored to be arrogant, and nearly engaged, he is everything she should resist... yet her heart refuses to obey.
When Ophelia defends a maid and overhears a dangerous conversation, she uncovers secrets that bind powerful families together. Suddenly, she is ensnared in a web of scandal and deceit-and marked as a target to be silenced.
