Her Aunt Hid Her in the Kitchen While the Duke Chose a Bride — Then He Was Carried Hurt to Her Fire

On his first night at Pike Manor, Bertram, Duke of Camden, sees Mrs. Cornelia Pike push a young woman in a grey dress through the kitchen door and lock it, so that he will never see her face. He has come to Wiltshire to choose a bride before Twelfth Night, or lose his fortune to his charming cousin. The next morning his horse goes mad beneath him in the snow, and the grooms carry him, bleeding and broken, to the nearest fire. It is the kitchen fire, and the hidden girl kneels down beside him and saves his life. Iris Grey is the orphaned niece her aunt has kept as a servant for eight years. But the fall was no accident. Someone sewed an iron spike into his saddle, and someone is still trying. Poisoned drops, a forced wedding at a frozen mill, a cut in the ice, a false charge and a night in a stone cell stand between them and the Twelfth Night ball where the Duke must name his bride.
