Description
Henrietta “Henry” Barrett has never been one to follow society’s rules—especially not while managing her elderly guardian’s remote Cornwall estate with a sharp wit and a mind of her own. When a handsome, wealthy outsider known only as “Dunford” arrives, the sparks between them threaten to upend everything Henry believes about propriety, independence, and the risks of wanting more. As attraction turns into temptation, Henry must decide whether she can outwit the expectations placed upon her—or if love will finally demand she surrender control. With Julia Quinn’s signature blend of humor, romantic tension, and spirited character work, this delightful story explores the freedom of self-invention and the surprising ways a rogue can become a reason to stay.
