When a stubborn officer finally returns to claim his title after years away, he's shocked to discover that the plain tomboy he once rejected has transformed into a breathtaking beauty—and she still wants him. Colton agrees to a ninety-day courtship to prove that love can't be forced, but as he spends time with the spirited, graceful Adriana, his carefully guarded heart begins to crack in the most unexpected ways. Their rekindled connection burns with genuine desire and chemistry, yet secrets from his past and a dangerous rival's schemes threaten to destroy everything they're building. This is lush, sweeping Regency romance at its finest—a passionate second-chance love story about two people learning that sometimes the person we rejected is exactly who we were always meant to find.
