She believes in poetry, stardust, and happily-ever-afters.
He believes in duty, black powder, and the chain of command.
They have one summer to turn her into a lady—
before he returns to war, and she’s matched with another.

Celeste Dubois has lived life at the edge of the stage and the margins of society. But now that she’s an heiress, she dares to dream—not of balls or titles, but of falling in love. Real love. The kind revered by Shakespeare and whispered beneath the moonlight. She’s determined to find her perfect English prince… as long as she can keep her fluttering heart from panicking first.

Alexander de Warenne, Earl of Hawkhurst, General of His Majesty’s cavalry, has no patience for frills, French nonsense, or feelings. Yet he owes her father a debt—and that means transforming the tulle-wrapped ballerina into a proper young lady before the Season ends. One summer. No distractions. No attachments.

But Celeste is a whirlwind of innocence and wonder. She charms his household, unsettles his routines, and upends his well-defended heart with every sigh and smile. And the more she dreams of love, the more Hawk begins to dread the day he must give her to someone else.

A poignant, playful Regency romance about opposites who weren’t supposed to fall in love—and what happens when they do.
