The person he despised most could turn out to be his greatest chance at love. Lord Winston Lockwood is haunted by his past and bound by social expectations. He remains at Brockhall Manor to ensure his aunt and her son remain safe from her abusive husband. Adding to his frustration, Miss Bawden's constant presence threatens to drive him mad.

But when a dire threat looms, bringing danger to their very doorsteps, Winston understands he must confront his own feelings and risk revealing his true emotions, or he could lose the woman he has come to realize he cannot live without.

As the threat looms closer, Wesley and Melody are forced to work together to uncover the culprit that is lurking in the shadows of Brockhall Manor.
