“Love was never in the arrangement, and now it is the only thing that matters.”
Catherine Beaumont agrees to marry Marcus Pemberton, the Earl of Penwood, for one reason: survival. As an unwanted dependent, she sees security in his proposal and accepts the role of organizing his chaotic household in exchange. But as she brings order to his world, Catherine begins to crave something she never expected, her husband’s heart.
Marcus needs a capable wife to help him host a gathering of renowned antiquarian scholars, not a love match. Yet his efficient bride proves far more captivating than any artifact in his collection. Her wit, warmth, and unshakable strength awaken a desire he thought he’d buried long ago.
But their growing closeness is soon overshadowed by danger. When secrets and betrayal threaten Penwood Manor, Catherine and Marcus must fight not only for their future, but for their very lives.
Can a marriage born of necessity become the kind of love that conquers even the darkest shadows?
A sweeping Regency romance of marriage of convenience, slow-burn passion, and found family, perfect for readers who crave equal parts tenderness, intrigue, and heart.
