Description
Ten years ago, Eben Ashbourne, the Duke of Winsleigh, locked away every tender piece of himself, and with it, the girl he once loved. Cold, controlled, and untouchable, he no longer believes in hope . . . or in the promises he made as a boy.
Until a winter storm brings her back to his door.
Rosamund Hale arrives at Winsleigh Hall with nowhere else to turn. She expects kindness from the boy she once adored, only to find a man who pretends not to know her at all. Yet he offers her shelter and a position as governess, placing them under the same roof . . . and far too close for comfort.
What begins as strained civility soon becomes a collision of old feelings and new desire.
A lingering glance. A breath held too long. A history neither can outrun.
Old memories awaken. Unspoken longing stirs. And the duke who vowed never to feel again finds himself battling the one woman capable of unraveling him.
But society watches. Rivals whisper. And secrets from the past threaten to tear them apart once more.
To reclaim the future they lost, Eben must face the truth he’s spent years denying, and Rose must decide whether risking her heart again is worth the cost.
