Megan Frampton returns with the eagerly anticipated second book in her Hazards of Dukes series, a series that has already won over fans and critics alike. In this captivating tale, Nash, the "dangerous" Duke of Malvern, finds himself at a crossroads. He has always resisted the constraints of English society, driven by his fear of following in the footsteps of his brutish late father. He leads a life weighed down by responsibility and lacking in joy, and despite his vow to never marry, he realizes that he must fulfill his duty to provide an heir and a spare.

Determined to find a suitable bride, Nash reluctantly surveys the available young ladies in society, seeking someone who can tolerate his one-word answers and frequent glowers. However, what he encounters is not what he expected. Ana Maria, a former servant who has risen to the position of lady-in-training, finds herself stifled by the restrictive rules of society. After the death of her father and wicked stepmother, she yearns for freedom and the opportunity to explore the joys that life has to offer.

When Ana Maria's independent actions put her in danger, her half-brother insists that Nash teach her self-defense. At first, most of London's ladies find Nash intimidating, but Ana Maria sees beyond his rough exterior. She recognizes a man who needs to be introduced to all the wonders of life. Unofficially, their physical contact begins to blur the line between friendship and grows into something more.

As their relationship deepens, Nash and Ana Maria face challenges and obstacles that test their strength and resilience. They must navigate the complexities of society, deal with rival suitors, and confront their own demons. But through it all, they discover that their love is stronger than any obstacle that comes their way.
