Published

One scandalous dance. One unforgivable betrayal. One chance to rewrite their fates.

Miss Daphne Harland is out of options. Her father insists she marry a man three times her age, and society won’t save a woman trapped by debt and desperation. When a chance encounter with London’s most infamous rogue presents a scandalous escape, she orchestrates a single kiss—enough to ruin her reputation and free her from a future she cannot bear.

But Dominic Hawke didn’t come to London to rescue a damsel. He came for revenge. One dance with Miss Harland will be enough to provoke outrage and force her father into a duel—justice, at last, for the mother Dominic couldn’t save.

He doesn’t expect to admire Daphne’s wit. Or her courage. Or the inconvenient desire that sparks every time they clash.

Now, with reputations in tatters and the ton watching their every move, Daphne must seek sanctuary at Shadowmere—Dominic’s notorious country estate, where secrets lurk behind every locked door, and no one leaves unchanged.

She’s his enemy’s daughter.
But she could be his only salvation.

For readers who enjoy intrigue, danger, and a romance that does not fade to black.
