He's fallen from grace. She's fading from sight. Love refuses to overlook them.
A sensual, witty Regency Romance from Bestselling Author Emma V. Leech.
Once the ton's favourite scandal, Beau, the Marquess of Beaumont, falls so spectacularly from grace that he must flee England to avoid debtor's prison. Banished, broke, and bruised in pride, he discovers he has only one friend left in the world: Miss Millicent Sparrow -- a shy, skittish little creature who seems as startled by kindness as she is by him.
Milly has spent years surviving her cousin's cruelty, hiding in plain sight, and praying never to be noticed. But Beau's unexpected friendship -- warm, teasing, and impossibly handsome -- becomes the single bright thread in her bleak life. Her letters keep him sane. His attention makes her feel seen.

When Beau unexpectedly inherits a dukedom, he returns to claim his new life -- and to find his little Sparrow. What he discovers instead is a woman on the brink of ruin. Moved by compassion, he offers her his name in marriage.

He expects gratitude.
He does not expect desire.

And he certainly doesn't expect his quiet wife to stop wanting him the moment he starts wanting her.
Now Beau, who has never struggled to gain a woman's attention, finds himself hopelessly captivated by the one woman who seems determined to ignore her gorgeous husband.
Winning his duchess may be the greatest challenge this rake has ever faced.

Perfect for fans of:

• Scandalous marquesses and unexpected dukedoms

• Shy heroines with hidden strength

• Friendships that blossom into something more

• Marriage of convenience with a twist of desire

• Friends-to-lovers tension and witty banter

• London society, ballrooms, and intrigue

• Second chances and forbidden romance

• Daring escapes, passionate kisses, and suspenseful twists

Warning:
This story features a notorious rake, a quietly rebellious heroine, and a marriage that's anything but convenient. Expect clever repartee, heart-thumping escapades, and moments that may leave you breathless -- or reaching for your fainting couch. Proceed only if you're ready for temptation, secrets, and a love story that refuses to play by society's rules.
