​Lady Diana Ashbury, daughter to the Earl of Cunningham, is not even remotely interested in the upcoming parties of this London season. She wishes to find true love, but she doubts such thing exists in the real world. When she meets the devilishly dashing Lord Welles, she has a rather unexpected reaction. While she is trying to stay as far away from him as possible, she cannot deny the pull this magnetic man exerts upon her. How can she resist to this powerful attraction? On the other end, Lord Edward Welles, and future Duke of Langton, is in his element, and he can’t wait to meet all the hearts he’s going to break by the end of the season. Quick enough, he finds his next conquest, Lady Diana Ashbury. Despite his renowned wit and charm, tempting her seems like a tough game. With his attraction growing stronger, he feels like he’s risking losing love over a stupid game. Will he realise that soon enough to put an end? Torn between logic and passion, between truth and lies, they find themselves drawn to the very edge of impropriety. But when Lady Diana uncovers the truth about him, how could he possibly convince her to forgive him—when he destroyed everything she had felt?

​Henrietta Harding was born in Atlanta, but she moved to Europe with her parents at the age of 7. She fell in love with France, and especially Paris, a city that inspired and continues to inspire her a lot. No one is born a romance writer, but she got a good start. She has been writing since she was 4 years old; while other children had just started talking more fluently she had already written her first poem! She studied French literature at the University of Strasbourg where she met her husband during her second year in college. Henrietta makes her home in Boston where she spends her time writing her own enchanting historical romances, and chasing around her dog for long hours, without even noticing. She truly believes the most perfect heroes and heroines are imperfect, and she rather enjoys torturing them before giving them a well deserved happily ever after! Henrietta loves to connect with her readers!
