Publisher Description

In New York Times bestselling author Cathy Maxwell's glittering new series, wedding bells are ringing… until the return of a rake throws a bride's plans— and heart—into a tailspin

Every debutante aspires to snag a duke. Elin Morris just happens to have had one reserved since birth. But postponements of her marriage to London's most powerful peer give Elin time to wonder how she will marry Gavin Baynton when she cannot forget his brother, Benedict.

Already exasperated at being yanked from the military to meet "family obligations," now Ben must suffer watching his arrogant sibling squire the only woman he has ever loved. Joining the army saved Ben from sinking into bitterness, but seeing Elin again takes him back to the day they surrendered to their intoxicating desire.

As the wedding draws near, Elin tries to push Ben far from her thoughts. When danger brings them together, there is no denying their feelings. But can Elin choose love over duty...?

— Publishers Weekly (starred review) 

Quotes

    — RT Book Reviews (4 stars)
  • “The characters are likable but just foolish enough to experience a satisfying amount of personal growth over the course of the story.”

    — Kirkus Reviews
  • “Narrator Mary Jane Wells employs an airy voice in spinning the story of Elin Morris…Wells uses slight tonal differences to differentiate the main characters…Her strongest suit is displayed in the various accents she gives to servants and lesser characters.”
