The book has a slightly crumpled cover

A romantic narrative from the environment of the highest English nobility at the beginning of the 19th century is a love story about love and binding family and social obligations. Every debutante is usually eager to catch the earl when she enters society. Elin Morris is lucky enough to have been promised to the Earl by her parents shortly after birth. But postponing her marriage to one of London's most important men has given Ela time to wonder how she can possibly marry Gavin Baynton when she can't get over his brother Benedict. Ben, angry that he was recalled from the army to attend to "family commitments", suffers when he sees that his upstanding brother is about to marry the woman he already loves. Working in the army has allowed Ben to forget his first love, but a new meeting with Elin takes him back to the day when both, very young and immature, succumbed to burning desire. Elin tries to push Ben out of her mind, but when a sudden danger brings them together, it's impossible to hold back the feelings. But can he put love before duty?
