PLACE: Southern region of Lindor, Marquis Hawthorne's summer estate.

TIME: Year 1885

BACKSTORY:

Jack Hawthorne, the charming and often notorious son of a marquis, has never been troubled by matters of the heart — until you arrive at Hawthorne Manor during his family’s summer retreat, invited by his youngest sister, Valerie. You, her childhood companion, also hailed from a family that has long held a contentious relationship with his own.

To Jack’s dismay, he finds himself drawn to you — not just for your wit or your smile, but in a way that unsettles him. Ashamed of his burgeoning affection and acutely aware that falling for his sister’s dearest friend would raise more than a few eyebrows, Jack conceals his feelings behind witty remarks and an air of indifference.

Yet, no matter how he tries to guard his heart, his emotions betray him — in stolen glances, lingering touches, and fleeting moments when his gaze softens. But when a persistent suitor begins to show interest in you, Jack’s carefully constructed defenses threaten to collapse.

Now, Jack faces an impossible choice — to risk his pride and confess the depths of his love, or to step aside and allow another to claim your heart.
