When Lady Marianne's father dies, she discovers that he has been stealing. Determined to do the right thing, she calls the constable who makes the scandal very public to further his career. Publicly shamed, her cousin who has inherited the title has cast out Marianne and her younger sister. As she struggles to figure out what to do, Marianne finds one last item stolen by her father. It is a broach that belonged to the sister of Alexander Wittingham, the Duke of Avondale. Avondale catches her attempting to return the broach. He realizes Marianne is in dire straits and makes her a shocking offer that can save her.
Can Alexander accept Marianne as more than his lover?
This book is e-reader melting hot! I loved the story and the characters. It was a delightful read.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by NetGalley and the publisher. Thank you!
