Dartmoor, 1891

Nothing exciting ever happens in Elizabeth’s life, especially when she stays on her family’s estate in Dartmoor. Endless moorland, cold weather, sheep, and only her governess for company.

Boring.

So when Christopher, a boy she’s never met, arrives at her house to stay for a while, she’s curious and thrilled. Her parents are clear, though: she mustn’t talk to him under any circumstances. Officially, he isn’t there. He’s confined to a room in the guest wing, never to meet anyone. Elizabeth is supposed to pretend he doesn’t exist. So of course, she wants to talk to him.
Freshly expelled from Eton for a crime he didn’t commit, Christopher is the illegitimate son of a duke. He’s considered an uncomfortable, embarrassing acquaintance no respectable lady should ever deal with.

But when Elizabeth and Christopher find themselves alone for a few days in a cottage during the country’s most powerful snowstorm in centuries, they get close—too close for her parents’ liking.

He’s sent away without the chance to say goodbye to Elizabeth. Only to meet her years later when she’s his half-brother’s bride-to-be.
