More about the book
Despite the scandal surrounding his 18-year-old bride, Lord Giles Cardross believes beautiful Helen truly cares for him. However, as she fills her days with fashion and frivolity, doubts creep in. His family suggests she married for money, and as debts mount, Giles questions her innocence, especially since she can’t meet his gaze. Lady Helen has spun a web of little white lies to help those in need, including her debt-ridden brother and her husband’s lovesick sister. Yet, to her devoted husband, she feels compelled to uphold integrity and truth. When priceless family jewels go missing, Giles is horrified at the thought of Helen being involved. As he grapples with her extravagant spending, bails out her impulsive brother, and navigates family chaos, he struggles to see where things went wrong. Meanwhile, Helen, burdened by mounting debts, fears revealing her truth: she has loved him from the start, believing he married her for convenience. The tension mounts as secrets threaten to unravel their fragile bond, leaving both to confront their feelings and the realities of their marriage.
