Description

Cora Downes has the beauty, spirit, and wealth to command attention—but not the “breeding” London society demands. When her daring rescue of the young heir of the Duke of Bridgewater earns her a place in the Duchess’s circle, Cora is swept into the glittering, unforgiving world of high society just as she’s about to meet the man who seems determined to notice her flaws as much as her charm. As introductions, misunderstandings, and near-disasters keep pulling her into Lord Francis Kneller’s orbit, Cora must navigate the rules of a class system that prizes appearances over character. With Mary Balogh’s signature blend of Regency romance and emotional realism, this story explores belonging, reputation, and the quiet courage it takes to claim one’s own worth in a world that insists on labels.
