Miss Agatha Cartwright isn't certain she believes in love. Her father blamed her for her mother's death and treated her terribly. Her life changed upon his death and the Duke of Wharton became her guardian. Suddenly she has a family, and with that a plethora of opportunities. It aslo makes her question everything...including the possibility of love.
Roarke James, the Marquess of Huntington doesn't believe in love or happy-ever-after. He never expected to meet a woman that would challenge that belief. During a Christmastide house party, and with the magic of mistletoe, one wallflower makes him question everything, and perhaps consider love isn't so far-fetched after all.
From the moment Agatha met Roarke she became drawn to him, but she's not sure what she truly wants. The marquess or the freedom to make her own choices. One kiss between them brings everything crashing down and they both have to make the biggest decision of their lives. Love or the freedom they both think they want.
