Atone, Adonis

Some marriages begin with love. Others with ruin...

Ten years ago Frederick Sedgewick destroyed Julianna Farrow's life.

One reckless night on a storm-lashed Dorset road left Julianna orphaned, condemned her brother Thomas to a lingering illness, and sent Frederick fleeing England beneath the weight of scandal and guilt. Now he has returned as the Earl of Chester. Wealthy, snide, and determined never to let himself love anyone too deeply again.

Except for the inconvenient detail of his impending marriage. Thomas Farrow has extracted one final promise from Fred: he will marry Julianna but never touch her.

Julianna wants nothing from the man who shattered her future. Not his title. Not his money. And certainly not his pity. But she, like Fred, cannot refuse her brother's dying wish.

As scandal closes in and old wounds are torn open, Fred and Julianna must decide whether some mistakes can ever be forgiven. And if love is worth the terrible vulnerability it demands.

With simmering tension, sharp wit, and an emotional marriage-of-convenience romance, Atone, Adonis is a story of grief, redemption, and choosing love-not just once, but every day thereafter.
