| Summary |
An unexpected fortune falls into a tradeswoman's lap, a gentleman insists it rightfully belongs to him, will falling in love make matters better or worse? Adam Gillensford, third son to an earl, has always been the rightful heir in his own mind-a belief shattered when an unexpected stipulation leaves his family's fortune to Elaine Chapple, a seamstress who suddenly finds herself navigating the complicated world of upperclass society. Now Adam faces a bitter choice: assist this unlikely heiress in her societal debut, or undermine her to reclaim what he deems rightfully his. A task complicated by the magnetic pull he feels whenever he's near her. Elaine Chapple's life was already a delicate balance, running a small dress shop while serving as guardian to two young children. When she inexplicably inherits a fortune from a stranger, she is thrust into a gilded world fraught with etiquette and subterfuge. Her guardianship of the children hangs in the balance, dependent on her successfully maintaining her newfound status. With Adam Gillensford as her assigned-and conflicted-guide, she can't help but wonder: is he her ally in this bewildering new world, or the orchestrator of her downfall? In a society where inheritance is more than wealth-it's a ticket to a life of privilege or a descent into social oblivion-Adam and Elaine must navigate a web of family expectations, societal norms, and their own conflicting emotions. As they grapple with their precarious futures, will they discover that the most treacherous, and rewarding, inheritance of all is love? |
