Frederick Maxwell, the Earl of Ashmore, is in dire financial straits. Unfortunately, an incident involving a lake and a well-meaning girl had placed him in an impossible situation. When he finds himself suddenly married to the girl of his dreams, he would do anything he can to keep his new wife from learning his secrets.
Hannah Stone had sworn to herself that she will never marry. Reality, however, has a cruel sense of humor: not only must she marry, but her betrothed is no other than the arrogant Earl of Ashmore. Hannah has to learn how to comport herself as a countess of the ton, a daunting feat. Not to mention, she needs to learn to live with a husband that she never wanted – even if he is the most intriguing man she’d ever met.
Being both attracted and distrustful of one another, Frederick and Hannah must find a way to face their darkest secrets and somehow forge a life together. Will they be able to see beyond their own fears and heed their hearts, or will fear win over love?
