Description
Lady Dahlia's birth into wealth and nobility assures her a good match once she's introduced to the London ton—but what if the man she wants isn't the one she gets?
In Victorian London, a well-born lady is in high demand. Lady Dahlia's entrance into society takes the ton by storm. But not long after she discovers her knight in shining armor, he disappears—leaving her broken-hearted and with no choice but to marry an earl. Her life with her new husband is exciting, but she can't forget her lost love.
In the years that follow, Lady Dahlia births seven children and loses two, travels the globe, and realizes there's more to the world than she ever imagined. But as her marriage disintegrates, she wonders if there isn't more for her—and then her lost love, who is actually a spymaster for the Crown, returns. Will Dahlia do what's expected of her and live out her life with a man she doesn't love? Or will she follow her heart, risking a scandal but finally knowing true happiness?
