He wants her fortune. She wants his heart. But love has a terrible habit of ruining even the best-laid plans.

​

Hannah Leigh ought to be grateful. With her grandfather’s passing, her family is thrust into a world of comfort and consequence, but large houses and expensive gowns can’t erase the feeling that she’s been dropped into someone else’s life, complete with strange customs, strained loyalties, and a grandmother determined to make their new home a battleground.

​

Thank heavens for Mr. Windham. Her dearest friend and truest love. Her one constant.

​

But all that glitters is not gold.​

​

Raised with a gentleman’s expectations and a poor man’s prospects, Jonah Windham must marry well if he is to escape a life of drudgery. Others may call that mercenary, but marriage is just another contract like any other. A little patience and Miss Leigh’s dowry will be his. 

​

But Jonah isn’t the only gentleman to notice Miss Leigh’s newfound charms, and he has no intention of allowing another to steal the future he’s worked so hard to secure. Or to question why losing her troubles him almost as much as losing her fortune.
