When rules define him, and defiance defines her, but passion changes everything.

Miss Phoebe Langley is wilful, outspoken, and finally free to live life on her own terms. Those terms do not include marriage or obedience -- but they do include the scandalous decision to go into business.
Unfortunately, her path keeps crossing with Lord Finneous Levermarch, a rigid, condescending man who is far too handsome for his own good. He believes a wife should be gentle, sweet, and unquestioning -- three things Phoebe has never been and never intends to become.

Finn has never met a woman who challenges his self-control -- or his convictions -- quite like Phoebe Langley. She defies society's rules, speaks her mind without apology, and unsettles him in ways he does not wish to examine. She is everything he insists he does not want in a wife... and the only woman he cannot stop thinking about.
