She's scorned, defiant, and ready to rewrite her future.
Lady Eliza Nelson fell hopelessly in love with the charming boy next door, only to be left heartbroken and ruined for any other man.

He's guarded, haunted, and unwilling to forget the past.

As the two navigate their explosive reunion, their past threatens to ignite in ways neither can control. Secrets, deception, and undeniable desire bind them together while they try to tear each other apart. Can they overcome past pain to find an intense love—or will bitterness destroy them both?
