Lady Helen has a desperate plan to escape her father's arranged marriage: get caught in a scandalous moment with the most notorious man in London and watch her reputation crumble. Enter the Duke of Night, a man so darkly magnetic that a single kiss in public would absolutely seal her fate—or so she thinks. What begins as a calculated gamble becomes something neither of them expected, as Helen discovers there's far more beneath his dangerous exterior than his fearsome reputation suggests. This is a swoon-worthy tale of two misunderstood souls finding unexpected love in the glittering chaos of Regency society, proving that sometimes the most scandalous choice leads to the greatest happiness.

Moody strings, sultry vocals, and brooding indie atmospherics. Think lush orchestral arrangements meets dark romance—yearning yet dangerous. Jazz noir, gothic whispers, classical tension. A soundtrack for forbidden attraction in candlelit ballrooms.
