Ready to publish her first novel, Miss Anna Montclair knows she risks ruining her family's reputation. When her father decrees that she must secure an engagement before her younger sister may wed the man she loves, Anna feels trapped. Just as all hope seems lost, an irresistible candidate comes her way, making her question if love and her passion for writing ever co-exist.

Lucien Deverell, the Earl of Highmoor, is handsome, cultivated, and still healing from a troubled past, and he has no intention of taking a wife. As he returns to London to visit his ailing grandmother, he realizes it was all a ruse to marry him off. Can he find a way out of his predicament with the beautiful, independent-thinking Anna?

As their plan for a false engagement progresses, Anna and Lucien grow dangerously attached. Sharing more secrets in common than either expected, can they protect their fragile bond when a vindictive lady from Lucien's past threatens everything they hold dear? Will Anna and the Earl find the courage to give themselves to love and rewrite their future together?
