A woman determined to challenge society. An arrogant lord determined to stop her. And a darkness beneath their feet neither expected.
Miss Matilda Wilson has never backed down from a challenge.
Opening a women-only club on the same street as one of London’s most elite gentlemen’s establishments was always going to invite opposition—especially from Lord Ambrose Talbot and his sanctimonious associates.
But Tilly is determined to prove women deserve their own spaces.
However, when she discovers a hidden tunnel beneath her club, and then a young woman approaches her about her missing sister, she realizes there is a mystery afoot.
Unyielding, and infuriatingly beautiful, his youngest sister’s best friend has been a thorn in Lord Ambrose Talbot’s side for too long. She challenged him at every turn.
When she comes to him and the Nightingale family for help to uncover a mystery, Ambrose knows refusal isn’t an option.
Protecting her means confronting secrets long buried, and his own growing realization that the woman he once dismissed may be the only one he truly wants.
