Part of The Earl's Sisters, book 3
First published 2026
Lady Camilla Rowlandson has treasured her close bond with Lord Pembroke since his cousin wed her sister two years past. She overhears the earl planning to court someone else and decides to abandon her hopes for him. Camilla resolves to seek a husband who will bring tranquility instead of pain. She meets Pembroke's easy magnetism with distant politeness. The lord has always won every woman's affections without effort. He grows puzzled when Camilla, who once knew his thoughts perfectly, turns cold toward him. Her clever conversation, quiet dignity, and refusal to praise him catch his attention in new ways. His wish to restore their bond transforms into desire he struggles to resist. During London's social season, each waltz and whispered word becomes strategy in their contest of stubborn hearts and secret yearning. Society watches their every move. Camilla faces a choice between guarding herself and losing her true love. Pembroke learns that attraction requires more than surface appeal.
