Description
Lady Evelyn Harrow never believed in fairy tales, and certainly not in love born of obligation. But when her family's future hangs by a thread, she is forced into marriage with the enigmatic Lord Sebastian Blackthorne-a man feared for his cold demeanor and whispered secrets. Yet behind the facade of duty and power, Evelyn begins to glimpse something unexpected: stolen glances that linger too long, touches that ignite something more than necessity. As she navigates the treacherous waters of courtly life, she finds herself drawn to the man behind the title-the one whose scars run deeper than his reputation. In a world ruled by alliances and ambition, Evelyn and Sebastian must decide whether their union will be one of convenience or something far more dangerous-a love that defies the odds and threatens to consume them both.
