✦ Synopsis

At the height of the Roaring Twenties, New York heiress Zoe Gifford longs
for the freedoms promised by the Jazz Age. Headstrong and brazen, but bound by her
father’s will to marry before she can access his fortune, Zoe arranges for a brief
marriage to Sebastian Hazelton, whose aristocratic British family sorely needs a
benefactor. Once in England, her foolproof plan to wed, inherit and divorce proves more
complicated than Zoe had anticipated. Nigel Hazelton, Duke of Langford and Sebastian’s
austere older brother, is disgraced by the arrangement and looks down upon the raucous
young American who has taken up residence at crumbling Brideswell Abbey. Still reeling
from the Great War, Nigel is now staging a one-man battle against a rapidly changing
world—and the outspoken Zoe represents everything he’s fighting against. When
circumstances compel Zoe to marry Nigel rather than Sebastian, she does so for love, he
for honor. But with Nigel unwilling to change with the times, Zoe may be forced to
choose between her husband and her dreams.
