Description
She never forgot the boy who defended her. He never dreamed she would remember.
Lady Sophia Rowlandson has spent years perfecting the art of quiet composure—broken only once, at a country picnic when she was fifteen. Branded a lackwit by an insensitive neighbor, she was rescued by the unexpected gallantry of his visiting friend. Mr. Harwood’s defense lingered in her memory, and not even a separation of four years succeeded in dimming her admiration.
But society has claims of its own—and rivals eager to win her hand. As the gulf of class and expectation looms between them, Felix must decide: remain the dutiful man he has always been, or risk his hard-won future for the woman he has never forgotten.
