You return to London for one reason: your daughter’s debut. A widow for years, you have no intention of marrying again. Your life belongs to your children—your son, now a Viscount, and the future you are building for them. But when Violet Bridgerton invites your family to stay under her roof, everything begins to change. Your son finds guidance in a man who understands his burden. And you find yourself face to face with Anthony Bridgerton— a man who was never meant to matter. Living under the same roof, surrounded by laughter, tension, and watchful eyes, distance becomes impossible… and the closer he gets to your family, the harder it becomes to keep him out of your heart.
