About this book

A painfully shy Viola would do anything to avoid her London debut—until she meets a quiet vicar who seems perfect for her lonely heart. Enter the charming and relentless Duke of Wynter, who decides he must have Viola for himself, regardless of her apparent feelings for another man. What follows is a delicious battle of wills as Devin sets out to win not just her hand, but her guarded heart, while Viola discovers that the man she said yes to might be far more than she bargained for. It's pure Eloisa James magic—witty banter, genuine connection, and the swoon-worthy realization that sometimes the person who challenges us most is exactly who we need.

Regency-era tension meets slow-burn sensuality. Lush strings, sultry R&B, indie folk vulnerability, and orchestral drama. Yearning vocals over jazzy piano. Atmospheric, intimate, charged—for stolen glances becoming passionate surrender.
