Lilith Bergerac is not who others think she is - certain others, at least. The product of an illicit affair, Lilith arrived in England from France, and ever since, she has struggled to fit in. To make matters worse, she is unexpectedly thrown into a web of lies when her father arranges for her to marry the mysterious Duke of Blackmore. Despite her reluctance and the secrets she must keep, Lilith's strong spirit and compassionate heart begin to unravel the hardened exterior of the enigmatic duke.

Will she make the right impression, or will her past be her downfall?

Dominic Spencer, Duke of Blackmore, has withdrawn from society, shrouded in rumours of disfigurement and disability following a near-fatal carriage accident. Knowing he has no choice but to marry and produce an heir though, Dominic resorts to the strangest of means to make a match, and when that match arrives, he finds himself pleasantly surprised. Elizabeth intrigues and challenges him, as her kindness and vivacity begin to pierce the armour he has built around his heart.

If only he could be sure that it is his true self she is after…

As Lilith and Dominic get to know each other, they find they have more in common than they thought. However, as the time for critical decisions comes, they both must face up to those things that held them back, wondering if the other can truly accept them for who they are... Will Lilith’s past and Dominic’s disability be barriers to romance, or can love bloom, even in the midst of chaos?
