At his club, Simeon, Duke of Northford felt a cold shiver down his spine. His scowls and aloof manner kept people at bay, much to his liking. Except for one green girl who always managed to get under his skin. He wondered what his old nemesis was doing these days since he hadn’t seen her on the marriage mart.

Together they’ll flout convention and set the Ton on fire. But not before each of them learns the lessons love has to teach them.
