Lady Adriana Sutton has loved Colton Wyndham for as long as she can remember. Promised to him since childhood, she was crushed when he defied his father’s wishes and fled, choosing a life of adventure over duty. Now, after years away, Colton has returned—a decorated hero, yet still reluctant to fulfill their betrothal.
Adriana is no longer the shy tomboy he once rejected. Beautiful, witty, and desired by many, she’s determined to win Colton’s heart. But his pride and insistence on freedom leave her with a single option: a courtship trial. He agrees to ninety days, after which he may walk away.
But as they draw closer, a hidden secret from Colton’s past—and a dangerous rival—could end their love before it truly begins. Will they defy fate and find a way together?
