A marriage contract, a life debt, and a love worth defying fate for..

Lord Samuel Clark, Earl of Alston, woke from the brink of death to a new life he didn’t recognize. To save him, his sister made a deal with the Widow of Whitehall, trapping Sam in a marriage contract with a total stranger. But Sam refuses to accept such a cold fate and schemes to free himself in secret.

When Miss Daisy Blakewood is unscrupulously ousted from her traveling party, she takes shelter with her brother in the residence of the recovering Earl of Alston. Free of her strict chaperones for the first time, Daisy takes the chance to find her voice and forge a new future.

A chance meeting brings Sam and Daisy together, and their unexpected connection sparks an easy friendship and a secret alliance to help each other achieve their goals. But the embers of their bond catch fire, and friendship turns into a forbidden love that could shatter their carefully constructed worlds..
