Entering London Society for the first time as a young, wide-eyed widow-will the ton eat her alive? Lilliana St. Claire finds herself orphaned and married to an elderly earl days later. Lord Henry Langford, her deceased father's closest friend, is her savior, and their marriage is one of convenience. Lilly will care for Henry in his advancing years, and he will prepare her for a life within the Beau Mondewhen shebecomes his widow. Sadly, the title belongs to her only one year later at the tender age of eighteen. Edmund Weston, the new Earl of Langford, returns from the West Indies to the news of his uncle's death and that he has taken a wife. He arrives at Langford Manor in Kent, expecting an older woman, and is flabbergasted to find a mere slip of a girl. Tempers flare, and he accuses Lilly of tricking his uncle into marrying her and stealing from the earldom. Furious, Lilly flees to London. After her year of mourning ends, she prepares to take on the ton with as much confidence as she can muster. But to Lilly's dismay, the first gentleman who captures her interest is none other than her nemesis, and she struggles to equate this handsome, impressive earl with the man who had spewed such horrible accusations at her the year before. Lilly and Edmund dance around each other during the season, each with their own secrets to hide, trying their best to ignore their growing attraction. However, sometimes fate has other plans.
