American heiress Jenny Dove thought a marriage of convenience would solve all her problems, until her heart decided to rewrite the terms...
Jenny Dove has spent her life training to become an opera singer, determined not to repeat her mother's mistake of sacrificing her career for love. But when her younger sister needs her help, Jenny strikes a daring bargain. To save her sister's future, she'll marry a titled gentleman long enough to unlock both their inheritances, then return to Paris to live out her dream.
Lord David Felding, heir to a dukedom and unapologetic rake, has no interest in finding a wife, until Jenny walks into his life with an audacious marriage proposal. She'll give him one night in her bed in exchange for the protection of his name. It's supposed to be a simple transaction-no emotions, no complications. But when their wedding night reveals unexpected passion and a startling connection, walking away is anything but easy.
Instead of continuing his roguish life in London, David follows Jenny to Paris-and begins to court his own wife. As their sham marriage deepens into something real, Jenny glimpses the wounded man behind his charm and feels her carefully guarded heart begin to yield. But falling in love means a slow, irresistible unraveling of everything they thought they wanted...and trusting in something neither dared to hope for.
