Description
Witty, dutiful Tess is determined to protect her sisters’ futures, even if it means stepping into a marriage bargain with a notorious rake. When she’s drawn to Lucius Felton—whose charm is matched only by his reputation—practical duty collides with the unsettling possibility of real feeling. As courtship, family pressure, and social expectations tighten around them, Tess must decide what love is worth when prudence seems so much safer. In a style reminiscent of classic Austen-era heroines, this sparkling romance blends sharp wit with heartfelt emotion, exploring themes of reputation, financial security, and the courage it takes to choose one’s own heart.
