After ten years away, Arlen Sermont returns to the city of Edel, only to be caught in an outbreak of gunfire and falsely accused of treason. Stripped of her name and labeled a revolutionary, she finds herself at the mercy of one of the city's most feared men: Duke Liam Crawford, a cold, untouchable noble whose power could either destroy her or save her. With him, Arlen is pulled into a world of desire and deception, where scandals spread quickly and secrets abound. But the duke's aid is elusive, and his unreadable gaze hides something alluring and dangerous, something that she cannot grasp. In a society that seems to be set against her very existence, will the ruthless duke be her salvation, or her undoing?
