He never noticed she loved him-until she stopped letting him take her for granted. Lady Camilla Rowlandson has enjoyed an intimate friendship with Lord Pembroke ever since his cousin married her sister two years ago. But after overhearing that the earl intends to pursue another lady, Camilla resolves to set aside her feelings and find a husband who offers peace rather than heartache. If that means meeting Pembroke's effortless charm with cool indifference, so be it. Accustomed to winning every heart, Lord Pembroke is baffled when the one woman who always understood him suddenly grows distant. Camilla's sharp wit, quiet reserve, and refusal to flatter him captures his notice, and his determination to win back her friendship quickly becomes a temptation he cannot ignore. Amid the glittering London season, every dance, conversation, and stolen glance becomes another move in a game of pride and longing. Under Society's watchful eye, Camilla must decide whether protecting her heart is worth losing the man she loves, while Pembroke must discover that love cannot be won by charm alone.
