London 1776: Lord Worth is busying himself restoring his family fortunes and burying any feelings he still harbours for the woman who rejected his proposal.

The fact that the lady in question-Lady Rebecca Fairing-happens to be his sister's best friend, his niece's godmother, and present at every Societal gathering of consequence is... unfortunate.

Meanwhile Rebecca fears she made the wrong decision in rejecting James Worth, but when he assures her he won't be renewing his proposal, she is forced to accept her choice. It doesn't take long for the eligible Lord Worth to attract other suitors, among them Lady Sophia, daughter to Society's most notorious gossip, Lady Goring. Rebecca knows she must step aside and allow James to find happiness, but when she senses all is not as it seems in the Goring family, she can't help but intervene.

As James and Rebecca work together to unearth Societal secrets, deal with scheming matriarchs, and face villainous highwaymen, they find themselves more in each other's company than ever before.

Will they continue to bury their feelings for one another, or will they finally realise what it means to love?

In the third book of the Ladies of Worth series you'll be swept back to 18th century London to get embroiled in another coil with the imperious Lady Rebecca. With razor sharp wit, fashionable Society and the inimitable Lady Etheridge-James and Rebecca can't help but find their happily ever after at last.
