Overview

A marriage built on restraint. A yearning too fierce to contain. One perilous secret that could ignite-or destroy-their love. ""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. Brilliant, shy, and far more comfortable in a greenhouse than a ballroom, Evie never intended to marry, least of all a man as impossibly perfect as James. Yet behind closed doors, his tenderness awakens dangerous desires. As secrets from her past begin to unravel, Evie must choose between guarding her heart and revealing truths that could ruin her husband's future. But danger is closing in. 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?
