A scarred earl with a big heart—and a big problem.
Since his return from war, the Earl of Stanford's life has been anything but simple. A meddling older brother, a raucous group of friends, a crumbling estate, and an injury that forever changed him. The most infamous landscape architect in England arriving on his doorstep to restore his ruined gardens and his ruined heart.
