Lady Letitia’s great fortune and beauty are a winning
combination on the marriage mart—until a scandal ends her
engagement and ruins her reputation. The only way Letitia
can preserve what she holds dearest to her heart is marry
an old widower her enraged father finds quickly in the
country. Though the young, broad-shouldered, and handsome
Sir Percival Hanbury defies her grim expectations, she
has no reason to rejoice. Because, why would she trust
the man who, like others before him, jumps at the chance
to marry her money? But Sir Percival Hanbury has different appetite. He’s
determined to recover his family’s ancient seat, no
matter the price. Unfortunately, marriage to the current
owner’s disgraced daughter has never been the cost he
considered. Yet he cannot refuse, or his ancestral home
will be razed. Not only is his joy dampened, but Percy
loathes the idea of another woman in his life when
memories of his first wife still torment him at night.
And why would he trust a woman everyone in London gossips
about? Yet soon this gloomy prospect of a marriage takes a
surprising turn when the half-ruined castle captures
Letitia’s imagination. An accomplished artist, she just
cannot ignore such challenge to her talent, especially as
it comes with another one, the castle’s brooding owner—
and the needs he awakens, challenging much more than her
appreciation of beauty. Percy is torn by feelings he thought he’d banished for
good from his heart. Yet the golden beauty scaled his
defenses before he even noticed, bringing back light into
his life—and opening old wounds. The more he loses his
heart, the more old, dark, and ugly secrets stand in the
way of reaching for what he desires the most, and it is
not the bargain he’s made with Letitia’s father. But the fight for the love of his life will take more
than facing the past…
