Caroline Halperston is used to the residents of Penarth talking badly about her. How could they fail to, when her own mama spends her days endlessly telling tales of her daughter’s cruelty and wickedness? She has long since been resigned to her fate as neighborhood pariah until an unexpected incident sends her fleeing into arms of Gervaise Langdon, Earl of Atherton, who carries her off to London with him. Gervaise is very far from being a knight in shining armor, and Caroline absolutely should not trust him, however charming and affable he may appear.

You have seen her ten thousand times, on the prow of every Rolls-Royce ever built: the little silver woman leaning into the wind. You have never known her name. She was Eleanor Thornton. Born in a clerk's house in south London, she invented a self the world would make way for, ran the most glamorous motoring magazine of the Edwardian age, and for fifteen years loved a man she was never once permitted to claim: John, Lord Montagu of Beaulieu. She bore him a daughter in secret and gave her away to keep her safe.

Amara Fairfax was born between two rebellions. The daughter of an English heiress disowned for loving an African herbalist whose knowledge stretches back generations, Amara inherits both refinement and resistance. She knows how to enter a ballroom with poise and how to survive a world determined to reduce her. In Victorian society, she is admired, studied… and quietly rejected. Too educated to dismiss. Too composed to scandalize. Too powerful to control. Then Lord James Whitmore makes a dangerous choice: he sees her.
