""Callaway is the queen of angst and intrigue as well as steamy love scenes."" -Debbie, Goodreads From USA Today bestselling author Grace Callaway comes a deeply emotional Victorian romance about a marriage in crisis, second chances in love, and a slow-burn passion that defies all the rules. Years ago, Lord James Harrington, the Earl of Manderly, saved Miss Evie Ashewood and made her his countess. Their marriage was meant to be a sanctuary-until a threat to Evie's life shatters their fragile peace and exposes her hidden wounds. Now the quiet earl is tormented by an improper longing...for the wife he adores but cannot reach.

An ancient village prophecy, a looming enemy, and the fragility of new trust threaten to tear the couple apart. Will James and Evie fight for another chance at happily ever after...or lose each other before their hearts can fully bloom?
