Sometimes the future you fear becomes the one you choose.
A second chance at happiness? Only of her own making…
Widowed Lady Sabine Cogan married well in an effort to escape her fractured family. With a sickly husband who needed constant nursing, happiness wasn’t in the cards for her, and neither was love. When her husband’s title passed to his third cousin, she washed her hands of the whole thing, took her dowager settlement, and promised herself a life of freedom and of discovering what made her happy.
The thrill of adventure? Yes. Romance? Not so much…
Grant Blackwell, Duke of Mowbray, enjoyed his life. He did as he pleased and with whom and didn’t much care about the consequences. Marriage? He’d get around to it. There were women to seduce and bets to place and fine wine to drink. But then a horse-riding accident with the seemingly precipitous arrival of a beautiful widow makes him reconsider his life.
Fun? Adventure? Seduction? All yes. Falling in love? Not her…
Sabine never seriously considered engaging in a seduction. But with every stolen kiss that made her crave more, she reevaluated her options. A heated affair with the handsome duke? Not her worst choice in life. Stealing kisses is one thing but spending time with the brilliant and bold Sabine steals Grant’s breath and tempts him like no other.
Can they find their future together? Or will their fears of being hurt and abandoned crush any hope of a happy future?
