A Marriage of Duty. A Love That Can't Be Denied.
Kitty Stokes never expected to marry a nobleman. But when the only alternative is a lifetime spent caring for her brother's children, she reluctantly agrees to a marriage of convenience with the brooding and distant Lord Hayworth. On her wedding day, she is certain she's made a terrible mistake—until she meets his gaze for the first time.
Phineas Hayworth never intended to fall for his wife. Marrying the sister of a wealthy merchant is a desperate move to save his crumbling estate, and he has no right to expect more. But from the moment he sees Kitty, his carefully laid plans begin to unravel. She is beautiful, strong-willed, and utterly captivating. Yet, she keeps him at arm's length, and he soon realizes that while he was prepared for a loveless marriage, he is not willing to endure an unrequited love.
As they navigate the glittering world of Regency society, their growing attraction becomes impossible to ignore. But will Kitty risk her heart, or will Phineas's love remain unreturned?
A heartfelt, slow-burn Regency romance filled with longing, wit, and the timeless journey from duty to love. Perfect for fans of sweet and clean historical romance.
