A taciturn duke. A smitten wallflower. A secret that could ruin everything.
If Lady Charlotte Fitzgerald does not wed this season, she risks being declared a spinster—or worse, being forced into a betrothal with the most unpleasant cad in the ton.
Unfortunately, the only man she wishes to marry—the surly but kind-hearted Duke of Arundel—only sees her as a younger sister.
When she, the duke, and her closest friends are invited to the same house party, it’s the perfect opportunity to win him over—if only he weren’t so skilled at avoiding her.
Lady Charlotte is prepared to risk everything for the man she adores, but her gruff duke is keeping a massive secret, and if it comes to light then her dreams for the future will go up in flames.
