Description
How can something so wrong, feel so sinfully right?
Determined to follow her father's footsteps and go into business, instead of conforming to the Ton's rules, Lady Louisa Andrews must become an expert schemer. When it is announced that she is to meet the notorious Duke of Norenell, the plan is simple: she must make him hate her.
Overwhelmed by guilt, Nicholas Howe, the Duke of Norenell, can't accept anyone's love. The cause of a young lady's accident that left her disabled, he has chosen to live as an outcast. Until the day he meets Louisa; a lady whose defiant nature sets his being on fire.
Lulled into a false sense of euphoria by their budding feelings for each other, Louisa and Nicholas walk straight into a well-set trap. Amidst the chaotic efforts to save Louisa's sick father, threatening letters promise a fate steeped in misery for both of them. A fate that was sealed years ago in blood.
