The perfect debutante will find true love in his flaws.

Lavinia Pembroke is the perfect debutante—elegant, charming, and well-connected. Yet despite her polished exterior, she is still missing the ultimate achievement: the ideal suitor. She has set her sights on Lord Russell, a man of impeccable status and influence. Determined to prove herself, win his heart, and secure a proposal, she will stop at nothing. But how far can ambition push her before it leads to heartbreak?

Frederic Russell, the Duke of Frosthaven, is as enigmatic as he is noble. Recently jilted by one of society’s most sought-after ladies, he is determined to choose his next bride wisely. When he manages to snatch the flawless debutante, he hopes that Lavinia will be able to not only handle the solitary life of Frosthaven, but also face the secrets that hide behind locked doors.

Love pure and tender grows in Lavinia’s heart, but Frederic’s cold and distant demeanor threatens to make it wilt. With past demons haunting their lives, can their hearts bridge the divide, or will their love wither in the bitter winds of Frosthaven?
