Lady Eleanor Ashworth stands in pale rose silk at her own engagement ball, three hundred candles blazing, society gathered to celebrate what everyone calls the match of the year. Her heart soars with certainty—Lord Reginald Blackwood loves her, chooses her, sees past her modest dowry to her true worth.
Then Reginald leads her to the center of the ballroom floor—not for their first waltz as an engaged couple, but to publicly destroy her. His voice carries with theatrical precision as he announces he cannot bind himself to a woman whose family has "so thoroughly deceived him," whose father's gambling debts have reduced them to "near penury," whose dowry exists only on paper "stained with creditors' demands."
Six months later, Eleanor lives in the crumbling Ashworth Manor, caring for her dying father, managing impossible accounts, and planning her future as a governess. She's learned that love is a luxury she cannot afford, that romantic hope nearly destroyed her spirit. Can a woman who's sworn never to dream again survive when duty demands the impossible?
Perfect for fans of Regency romance, devastating betrayal, family loyalty, healing after heartbreak, and stories of quiet strength.
