News of Lord Hawkins' death has just given him a second chance, an opportunity to make his dreams come true, but he'll have to risk a scandal to take it. Chloe was relieved when news came of her husband's death. The two had hardly spoken more than a few words to each other before he left for India on their wedding day.

During her entire marriage to Lord Hawkins, all she'd wanted was a husband who'd love her so much he'd give up anything to be with her.
