Emily Frasier has been the ward of the Duke of Ellings since the age of fifteen. She also knows that soon it will be time to leave his household. When she discovers a cottage while visiting her aunt and uncle, she knows this is where she wants to live and become a teacher, as her father had once been.
Dillon Chambers must find a wife this season in order to please his mother. If she didn’t have control over something more precious than his freedom and life, he would not have made the promise to marry a lady with high connections at the end of the season. When he comes across Emily at his cottage and learns she is the ward of a duke, he feels his luck has finally changed. He could please his mother and settle with a lady he would want to have as his wife.
When the truth is revealed, Dillon knows his parents will never approve. Will he risk everything to have her?
