Daphne Randall is a woman in disgrace and nothing short of a miracle can fix it.

Six years ago, Daphne's divorce left her virtually penniless and entombed on a derelict estate. An inheritance frees her to pursue dreams of composing music and clearing her name from the stigma of adultery. When the scandal sheets reveal Daphne as the resident composer for the Arcadian music hall, she draws the ire of people who want her gone from London – including her former husband, Adam Randall, the Earl of Wakefield. Daphne is determined to stay and uncover who set out to destroy her marriage and why. When her life is threatened, however, the primary suspect turns out to be her relentless former husband.

Adam fell in love with Daphne within moments of meeting her. When their marriage ended with betrayal and lies, he lost his political future and his family’s legacy. He’s spent six years rebuilding his life as an archeologist in Egypt. He triumphantly returns to England ready to resume his place in society, and hopefully take a position at Oxford – that is if he can remain free of scandal. He’s not the problem, though. It’s Daphne. Now she performs on stage, writes risqué ditties and associates with scoundrels and ne’er-do-wells. She will destroy his new life if she’s not careful and Daphne is never careful. Adam is determined to remove her from London and his life no matter the cost.

Sparks fly when Daphne and Adam square off. Along with the bitterness and anger, they still feel towards each other comes the realization that the passion they once shared is still alive, still fierce and just waiting for the right circumstances to burst into flame. Saying goodbye wasn’t easy the first time. Now it may be impossible.
