The wallflower who was never loved...
Lady Carol was supposed to marry the Duke of Augustine. Then, shortly before the wedding, the duke committed suicide, citing her for the reason he couldn't go on living anymore. While there was no love lost between them, her situation is not any better when her guardian threatens to send her off to a convent unless she finds someone else to marry. Marriage to a gentleman she barely knows is a risky venture, but with nothing to lose, she accepts Lord Wright's hasty proposal. But she doesn't dare hope for a love match, until she gets to know him.
The widower who needs a mother for his young child...

Grant Carnel, Lord Wright, did everything he could to make everyone think he had a wonderful first marriage. He did it to protect the young child that isn't really his. He is determined that no one will learn the truth. His daughter's life will be free from scandal. With his first wife gone, he is free to marry again. But marriage would mean opening up old wounds that he thought he left behind. Especially when a gentleman comes around showing more interest in Carol than he has the right to have.
Two insecure people who were never loved are about to find out if love matches are possible in a place like London.
