Two weeks, one scandalous list — and a love neither of them planned.

After a tragic accident leaves Clara Dalton blind in one eye, she’s determined to seize one last taste of freedom before retiring to the country. Her list of daring pursuits includes everything a lady should avoid — duels, séances, and moonlit swims — not to mention the handsome viscount she can’t seem to shake from her mind.

Viscount Rutland has two weeks before he must announce his engagement to the perfect society bride — a woman who finds him as insufferable as he finds her. But when he discovers Clara’s scandalous list, he sees a chance to escape his own fate, if only for a little while. What begins as a reckless distraction soon ignites into a dangerous entanglement of secrets, temptation ... and murder.

Can they unravel the secrets that threaten their survival before passion leads them to ruin?
