About this audiobook
A grieving Duke, a disregarded daughter, an unsuitable love, a trap set to compromise, an unexpected happy ending.
Hunter Barrington, Duke of Melton, returned from war changed. Grieving his lost love, now the holder of a title he had never thought to inherit, expected to marry at the earliest opportunity, what he needed most was someone who could see him, simply as himself.
Lady Nerissa Loughbridge, always outshone by her beautiful sister and reproved for her hoydenish ways - what she needed most was someone who could see her, just for herself, who might allow that her dreams had value.
Then one day, in the winter woods, they met.... But a few magical weeks of friendship were swept away by the hectic London Season, as Lady Nerissa became the Incomparable of the Season, and the Duke’s new title made him the catch of the year.
Can they find their way back to each other, through all their hearts’ confusion? Can Lady Nerissa thaw a heart frozen in grief, and claim it for her own?
