Description
Abigail Gardiner has learned to survive on her own terms, even after losing her position as a lady’s companion and being forced to start over in a world that offers little mercy. When she knocks at the door of Miles Ripley, Earl of Severn, she finds herself facing an unexpected marriage proposal from London’s most irresistible bachelor. As Abigail and Miles navigate the pressures of rank, reputation, and private longing, their growing bond challenges what each of them believes they deserve. With Mary Balogh’s signature blend of emotional depth and Regency-era realism, this classic romance explores resilience, second chances, and the quiet power of choosing love without surrendering selfhood.
