She wants to change her luck ...
After falling victim to a terrible curse from the bride of a former lover, widow Lady Slight no longer finds joy in her idle pursuits. So when a former love comes knocking on her door, she coerces him into a nostalgic courtship that reminds her of happier times when the future was full of possibility.

Sebastian Markham departed England years ago after Harriet betrayed him. Now he is back and he needs the priceless painting he once gifted the girl he loved. But Harriet has changed, and Sebastian soon finds himself agreeing to spend time with the complex woman who has haunted his dreams.

With adventure afoot, Sebastian assures himself it is because he really needs that painting, but is it the promise of reawakened passion that beckons? Perhaps the timing is finally right, and perhaps Harriet is ready for a life not of high society comfort and status, but of high adventure and art.
