And then— The worst happens. Marriage. To the duke. To a man marrying her for all the wrong reasons. How can Silvester possibly convince Stella that he’s fallen in love with the quirky woman he married?

Especially after she laughingly announces that she’s in love—but not with that duke.

Not with her husband.

Thomas Peck is not most of London. The brilliant detective fought his way off the streets and into a promising career through sheer force of will and a keen ability to see things others miss, like the fact that Imogen isn’t peculiar…she’s pandemonium.
