A multi-author Regency romance novella, published and edited by Sara Adrien.
Lady Margaret Danby has perfected the art of being invisible. An impoverished widow with siblings to protect and a reputation balanced on a knife’s edge, she can’t afford another whisper—another mistake—another man who offers kindness with conditions.
Henry “Dash” Dashfield never expected to become a duke. Newly elevated and painfully aware he doesn’t quite fit in polished society, he’s determined to do his duty—keep the title respectable, the estate solvent, and the ton at a safe distance. Falling for a widow with sharp wit, stubborn pride, and a heart far too easy to admire was never part of the plan.
But when stolen moments turn into a scandal engineered by watchful eyes, Dash does the only honorable thing he can… and Margaret hears the one word that shatters her trust: duty.
Now, with gossip sharpening its teeth and Dash’s formidable aunts tightening the trap, Margaret must decide whether love can be chosen freely in a world that insists on turning it into a bargain—and Dash must prove, in daylight and in public, that Margaret is not his obligation… she is his choice.
A swoony, steamy Regency romance full of weaponized scandal, a redeemed hero, and found family—because the most dangerous thing in the ton isn’t being caught… it’s being brave enough to stay.
