Publisher's Synopsis
With her father and mother gone, Eleanor had nothing. No home, no title, no money. She was grateful for her loving relatives, especially her cousin Danielle, but what was she supposed to do? The man who had protected her when her father attempted to shoot her, was now fighting for his life, and she couldn't even go see him because his family was against it. With her having nothing, they would not allow her to continue her friendship with Lord Joshua Wallace if he were to wake up again.
Danielle, a feisty young duchess, disagrees wholeheartedly with Lord Wallace's relatives and anyone else who wants to shun Eleanor from society. The hypocrisy of the ton frustrates her beyond imagination, and she takes her cousin under her wings again. Eleanor is still recovering from her abusive marriage, even though her friendship with Lord Wallace made a great impact on her. Eleanor knows she can't expect more than friendship because the man she was married to before, made certain she felt worthless and undeserving of true love. When Eleanor asks Danielle to retrieve the things from her mother, her cousin discovers secrets nobody saw coming.
