Katherine Vareck is in for the shock of her life when she learns upon her husband Meri’s death that, before the accident, he had married two other women. And you know how the saying goes: Hell hath no fury like a woman who married a man who married two other women. Or something like that.   

Christian, Duke of Ranford and Meri’s far more upstanding brother, has no earthly clue how to be of assistance. He spent the better part of his adult years avoiding Meri and the rest of his good-for-nothing family, so to be dragged back into the fold is…unexpected. Even more so is the intrepid and beautiful Katherine, whom he cannot be falling for because he’s emotionally closed off and all that nonsense. Or can he? 

With a textile business to run and a strong, early friendship forming with Meri’s two other wives, Katherine doesn’t have time for frivolities. But there’s something about the pained and compellingly taciturn Christian that draws her to him. When an opportunity to partner on a business venture draws them even closer, they’ll have to learn to face their past fears if they’re to live and love in the present.
