He wasn't meant to inherit the earldom, and the first task awaiting the new Earl of Barrow is to clear his brother's name. To do so, he requires the help of the one person he'd hoped to never speak to again, Miss Heloise Hamilton.
James Barrow, newly styled Earl of Barrow, needs answers and the only person who might be able to help is the one woman in London he'd least like to see, and he's certain she wants nothing to do with him.
Miss Heloise Hamilton is glad she doesn't need to marry for money. In fact, she doesn't need to marry at all, so she's free to wait for true love. But allowing someone to love her requires trust, and she's doesn't give that easily.
Barrow has never had a woman tell him no, and he's discovered it makes the chase all that much more fun. He knows they're perfect together, but how does he convince Heloise?
