She expected to marry one gentleman but found herself sold to another.
Lady Clarice Dawson has been in love with Samuel Radcliff for as long as she can remember. He is the second son of the Duke of Stanton, and she intends to marry him when she turns eighteen. It has always been the plan—a love match since birth, a fairytale in the making. That is, until she wakes up in a living nightmare, with her father talking nonsense, acting irrationally and cruelly, and she finds herself being sold to the highest bidder to settle her father’s debts.

Samuel Radcliff has his entire life planned: marry Clarice Dawson, have a nursery full of children, and raise thoroughbred horses in the country. But life can be cruel. The love of his life marries someone else, and then his family dies, leaving him alone to navigate his new life as the Duke of Stanton.
