The Story
Lucius Anselme, newly minted Marquess of Windmere, arrives at Tamarix Hall with a single purpose: to restore his ancestral seat swiftly and return to the delights of a London season—the theatre, the balls, and the captivating beauties vying for his attention. But his plans unravel the moment he encounters Miss Cressida Ambrose.
Cressida is unlike any other young lady Lucius has met—intelligent, sharp-tongued, and fiercely independent. To her, marriage is a fate worse than spinsterhood.
When scandal threatens to tarnish her reputation, Lucius emerges as her unexpected protector. Despite his steadfast aversion to marriage, he extends his hand to save her from ruin, even though rescuing Cressida means risking his own carefully guarded heart.
Thrust into an uneasy alliance, Lucius and Cressida embark on a fraught journey that simmers with both antagonism and undeniable chemistry.
This angsty, enemies-to-lovers Regency romance is as tumultuous as it is tender and full of heartrending emotion that will keep readers spellbound until the very last page.

"Cressida wanted more of him, all of him.
She wanted to consume him as he did her, a feeling that both terrified and exhilarated her."
