BETROTHED TO THE DUKE FROM BIRTH—ON THEIR WEDDING DAY, HE CHOSE HER YOUNGER SISTER

Cassandra Fairmont had spent thirty-one years preparing for one future: becoming the Duchess of Bellamont. She learned languages, estate law, accounts, diplomacy, tenant management, and every duty expected of the woman promised to Duke Lucian Wycliffe since childhood. Then, before hundreds of witnesses on their wedding day, Lucian stopped the ceremony. He would not marry Cassandra. He had chosen her nineteen-year-old younger sister, Rosamund. But Cassandra's public humiliation is only the beginning. When her mother immediately pressures her to sign away the rights hidden inside an old marriage settlement, Cassandra refuses for the first time in her life. That single decision leads her to Greyfen, a neglected estate, a mysterious Schedule Three, and another Duke who has unknowingly respected Cassandra's intelligence for years. As family secrets surface and the truth behind her wedding-day betrayal is finally revealed, Cassandra gains enough power to destroy everyone who wronged her. The question is no longer whether another Duke will choose her. It is what Cassandra will choose when, for the first time, her future belongs entirely to her. A sweeping historical romance about betrayal, dignity, younger-sister jealousy, hidden family secrets, second chances, female strength, public vindication, and a love freely chosen rather than arranged.
