Now is the moment for her to do what makes her happy...
Unfortunately, Lady Isabella Beaumont is in a sticky situation. The Earl of Beaumont and his wife have departed for America, leaving Isabella to care for her own young children in the north, while her closest friend, the Duchess of Springton, remains behind. The dowager countess, Lady Isabella's mother, suggests that she see her aunt in the lake district, which seems to increase her chances.
Lady Isabella's one and only goal is to mend the broken friendship between the Dowager Countess and her sister. Rather than wanting to mend fences with her family, Lady Barrington is eager to take advantage of Lady Isabella until she can no longer tolerate it, as Lady Isabella soon learns. Returning to his country house, Joshua Forbes—the Duke of Frensdale—has done so reluctantly. His uncle wants him to find a wife before he can go back to his old life. Since he is powerless to choose the lady, and since many women from remote rural areas would gladly accept the title of duchess, this task is sure to be a breeze.
The Duke's indifference turns to obsession when his chance encounter with a mysterious woman at his private masquerade takes up all of his time. That sorceress—who was she? Why, despite his desperate efforts to find her, has she stayed hidden? Never in her wildest dreams could Lady Isabella imagine telling the Duke that she was the lady he had met that tragic night. Her aunt's eldest daughter's aunt is determined to secure the Duke for her.
She has to keep her promise to make peace with her aunt's family, even though she's starting to feel more and more for the Duke of Frensdale, and this may be her only chance at true love. Will the Duke ever find out who the mysterious green woman is?
Do you think Lady Isabella will be brave enough to be independent and speak up for what she believes in?
