Lady Charlotte Wentworth knows all too well what it feels like to be a burden. Born out of wedlock, she has never felt accepted by her cruel stepmother or her spoiled stepsister. However, her life takes an unexpected turn when her father receives a letter from the Duke of Devonshire, who years ago promised to marry his daughter and now wishes to honor that promise. Forced to accept the proposal intended for her stepsister, Charlotte braces herself for the worst.
Can she dare to hope when her future husband doesn’t even know her real name?
Henry Devinish, the Duke of Devonshire, was once an optimistic young man. After a serious accident, he became a shadow of his former self, scarred both inside and out. He longs for love and companionship, yet, fears no woman will have him as he is. Duty and loneliness guide his hand as he writes the fateful letter that will bring Charlotte into his life. Her unpretentious manner and gentle care thaw his wounded heart, and against all reason, he completely and utterly falls for her. If only he could trust her enough to reveal the truth about his condition…
Will Henry find in Charlotte everything he’s ever hoped for?
As the two of them tiptoe in an enchanting dance of half-truths and painful secrets, their deepening connection cannot be denied. Will they trust each other with the truth, even though it may very well doom their fragile bond? Or will they continue upon a path that will inevitably expose them and tear them apart?
