A romance from the Victorian era—capable of capturing readers even today.
London, 1844. After a terrible tragedy, Hope Maud saves only the title of her father, a viscount—and since then, secular salons and balls no longer seem like a place where she could begin a new life.
Caiden Dagger is one of the city’s most influential entrepreneurs, but the stain of “low” origins prevents him from being accepted in high society. He needs a connection that will open doors to places money alone can’t.
Hope and Caiden look like a couple created for mutual benefit: their union promises to solve both of their problems. But will they understand that behind the calculation there may be something more? And can a marriage arranged for convenience grow into real love?
For readers who enjoy the atmosphere of “Bridgertons” by Julia Quinn and the novel “My Favorite Duke” by Evie Dunmore.
