A house of enemies. A legacy of lies. One girl caught in the crossfire.

Anastasia's life was just as she wanted it. Simple and practical. As neatly arranged as the bouquets she designed in her father's floral shop. But when tragedy strikes, she finds herself in an inconceivable spot - at the mercy of a stranger, Nathaniel Fitzpatrick, the aloof and formidable Duke of Avondale.

Dragged from her modest life in London to a neglected estate ruled by scandal and secrets, Anastasia is thrust into a world that doesn’t want her. The duke’s handsome younger brothers - charming, arrogant, and unapologetically cruel - make no effort to hide their disdain. Especially Clinton Fitzpatrick, the coldest and most beautiful of them all.

But Anastasia didn’t survive heartbreak to be shattered by noble hands.

As the tension with Clinton simmers into something darker and far more dangerous, Anastasia must navigate a house of enemies, a legacy she doesn’t understand, and a man whose distrust may mask something far more forbidden.

An enemies-to-lovers historical romance with razor-sharp banter, slow-burning desire, and a heroine who refuses to kneel, even to a duke’s cruel brother.
