Description
Three years after the events of Emily Rath’s Second Sons duology, a socially awkward Lady Madeline Blaire inherits a fortune—and with it, a deadline that turns her escape fantasy into a high-stakes bargain. Racing to Alcott Hall, she seeks a husband on her own terms, only to find that the town’s vicar, Charles Bray, has returned with a duty-bound past and a growing, complicated connection to her. As their carefully arranged arrangement begins to feel like something more, the game warden John Warren refuses to stay in the background, carrying a secret that threatens to unravel every plan. Blending witty Regency charm with emotionally charged “why choose” romance, this standalone story explores consent, chosen family, and the freedom to redefine love beyond society’s rules—offering a third path none of them expected.
