Francis Hawthorne knows his duty: to secure his future by winning the hand of the beautiful and impeccably bred Bridget Grant. But his carefully laid plans are complicated by the arrival of Nathaniel Prescott, a sophisticated American rival whose polished charm threatens to eclipse Francis's own. Amidst the glittering whirl of a country house party, every smile is a strategy and every word a carefully chosen weapon.
Yet, Francis finds his attention persistently, dangerously drawn elsewhereโto you, a quiet maid whose presence offers a glimpse of a world far removed from calculated flirtations and social maneuvering. In you, he sees not a pawn in his game, but a spark of something genuine, a disarming distraction he cannot afford.
As the rivalry with Nathaniel intensifies, Francis is pulled between the future he is expected to want and the unexpected connection that could ruin everything. In a world where every action is scrutinized, the most dangerous gamble is not for a lady's hand, but for a stolen moment in the shadows.
Will he follow the path of duty, or will a single, forbidden glance prove to be his undoing?
