A duke in need of a wife...
The dukes of Everley always marry at thirty--but the current duke has left choosing a bride far too late. Arriving at a country house party for a Valentine's ball, he expects to find one suitable young lady to be the next duchess. He doesn't expect to find the woman he once kissed in a garden-the woman who was the bane of his life for a season and who might be the only woman who can save him from becoming a far too proper duke.
A lady in need of her own life...
Davinia has never forgotten that one kiss in a garden-but she has also been married and widowed and intends to keep her niece from making the mistake she nearly made when she allowed the Duke of Everley to kiss her. But when the house becomes snow-bound, Davinia begins to realize there is a warm-hearted man under the weight of a title. Is it too late to correct past mistakes and rekindle a love she thought lost?
