She Wore White to His Ball by Mistake—In His Family, It Meant “I Accept”.

#RegencyRomance #DukeRomance #HistoricalRomance #LoveStory Elinor Vale wore white to the Duke of Ashbourne’s ball for one innocent reason—her blue gown had torn. But the moment she entered the ballroom, three hundred guests fell silent. In the Harcourt family, wearing white at the Founder’s Ball carries an ancient meaning: “I accept.” The problem? The Duke had never proposed. What begins as a humiliating misunderstanding becomes a three-week courtship built around scandal, family secrets, a heartbreaking tragedy from the Duke’s past, and one question more powerful than any tradition: What does Elinor actually choose? A sweeping Regency romance about dignity, consent, hidden grief, second chances, and a woman finally being valued for her own voice.
