London. 1801. Love across the class divide.
Georgina Hartley has risen from humble rural beginnings to become a celebrated opera singer and courtesan. Determined and independent, she gave up her dreams of romance many years ago to focus on securing a nest egg for her dotage.
Edgar, Earl of Weatherby, leads his family with rigid resolve. Duty is everything to him and his place in the ton comes a close second. He knows he must marry a suitable high society bride and sire an heir.
But one night in Covent Garden sets them on a path that will turn their assumptions upside down. What price are they willing to pay for love? And what does duty really mean?
Can love conquer all?
