Lady Charlotte Fairchild has always been seen as unconventional by society—smart, rich, and uninterested in finding a husband. Raised by her father to defy social expectations, she doesn't see the need for marriage, except for one reason: to fulfill her secret desires. When she attends a friend's country wedding, the fiery Charlotte is instantly attracted to a mysterious and captivating duke, stirring feelings she never thought possible.

Will she give up her independence for a love she never saw coming?

Alexander Wentworth, the new Duke of Ashbourne, is overwhelmed by the debts and problems left by his inheritance. Heartbroken from a past lover's betrayal, he decides to stay in Hampshire hoping to escape his troubles. However, his life takes an unexpected turn when he meets Charlotte—strong-willed, alluring, and unlike anyone he's ever known. Now, he's torn between his growing desire for her and his need to find a wife.

Will he risk everything for a chance at a future with her?

When Charlotte and Alexander meet by a quiet lake, neither expects the dangerous game of lust and secrets that will follow. Her fierce independence both tempts and frustrates him, while his dark allure stirs a passion she can’t resist. Yet, with rivals plotting against them and scandals threatening, Charlotte’s fortune could end up tearing them apart. Can they give in to their forbidden romance, or will mistrust and duty ruin their chance at love?
