Once betrayed, always a bachelor. At least, that was the plan.
Stuart Alford never expected to return to Derbyshire. Indeed, he never wanted to return. However, when his brother dies, leaving him both his daughters and the family estate, Stuart must do what he does not want to do.
When he arrives to claim his inheritance and take up guardianship of his two wards, he discovers they have befriended a young woman who is visiting her sister and brother-in-law at Pemberley.
Mary Bennet is not like any other lady he has ever met. She’s refreshingly candid, and he begins to understand why his nieces adore her.
Be that as it may, Stuart, whose heart is just beginning to mend, has sworn off marriage, and he’s not reticent in sharing that fact. But despite his adamant proclamations, as sketches are made and shocking secrets are revealed, he’ll discover that offering his heart to another might be the only way for it to ever be fully restored.
