Tristan Lennox, the Duke of Richmond, had only ever once considered marriage, but when the bride of his choice was compromised by his cousin, he saw the couple hastily married and sent away to the country, out of sight, out of mind.
Three agonizing years later Hadley's husband is dead and as the head of the family, Tristan must see that she remarries, that she's safe and well-cared for. Even if it will never be him doing the caring...
When Hadley Williams finds herself recalled to London in a position of both means and independence, marriage is the last thing on her mind. Robbed of her dignity, her dreams and her passions, she'll never place her future or her person into the hands of men ever again, no matter how enticing those hands might be.
What she will do is make a very large property purchase, avoid the Duke who ruined her life, and try to keep society from finding out what she's really been up to in the nighttime hours of widowhood.
A very steamy Regency novella of approximately 40k with adult themes and DV and SA off the page and not inflicted by the hero. A happy ending is guaranteed but the journey to get there will be bumpy!
