About this ebook
A scandalous escape to Italy seems like the perfect plan—until a sudden snowstorm changes the rules.
Melisande, Duchess of Gifford, has enjoyed running wild since surviving her unhappy marriage—but she knows it’s only a matter of time before her brother forces her to settle down and be respectable.

Determined to make herself free, Melisande decides to escape into ruined exile with an absolutely scandalous affair and leave London forever.
But her heart may have other plans when she meets intriguing Lord Grayson Sanbourne…
