She’s full of life but struggles to find love.
His painful childhood memories have closed his heart forever.
Can she help him realize that life is worth the risk?
Miss Harriet Harcourt is bold, energetic, and spirited. She has a family who loves and accepts her for who she is. Unfortunately, the gentlemen in London find her lively personality to be too much. Harriet wants love, but it’s proving more difficult to catch than she thought.
To her delight, she finally meets a charming gentleman who seems enamored with her right away—until he goes silent and never seeks her out again. Harriet returns home after the Season, disheartened, only to unexpectedly run into that very same man.
Jonas Drake, Viscount Kentwood, lost his mother during childbirth and his father when he was just a boy. He vowed long ago that he would never put himself in a position to suffer that kind of pain again. That means no wife and children. Instead, he fills his time with revelry and temporary flirtations to distract himself from his pain.
After receiving an urgent letter from his beloved aunt, his only remaining relative, Jonas rushes to her home in the country. She convinces him to stay for a few months, hoping that he’ll change his mind about settling down. He wants to do nothing of the sort, until he accepts an unusual proposal from a bright young lady he though he would never see again.
Will Harriet be able to help heal this roguish viscount?
Will Jonas rediscover the joys of life and love?
