He's learned never to trust. She's determined to show him he can. Tristan Turner has spent a lifetime questioning the intentions of others. Mocked by those closest to him, belittled until doubt became second nature, he's built a quiet fortress around his heart. So when the captivating young woman he impulsively marries turns out to be someone he didn't expect... his worst fears flare to life.

She lied once. But her heart has been honest from the start. Beth Walker never intended to masquerade as anyone other than herself. But one white lie becomes a whirlwind -- and suddenly she's wed to a viscount who won't look her in the eye. Still, Beth knows what she wants. And slowly, tenderly, she begins to show Tristan the truth of who she is: not a fraud, not a fortune-hunter, but someone who sees him. Understands him. Chooses him.

His guard is high. Her hope is quiet. And love might find them anyway. As days unfold and defenses slip, Tristan starts to wonder whether mistrust is the only legacy he must carry. Beth's steady presence doesn't demand his affection -- it earns it. And somewhere between hesitation and longing, he realizes that judging too quickly could mean missing everything he's ever needed.

He was taught to expect disappointment. She came to prove he deserves more.

? If you've ever been afraid to believe someone's intentions -- and dared to hope that the right person will prove they're true... this story is yours.
