In her past life, Eleanor Ainsworth was a mere stepping stone in Lord Beaumont's ruthless climb to power, a convenient wife he tolerated only to showcase his 'true' love for another woman. Abandoned and heartbroken, Eleanor met a tragic end. Given a second chance, she vows to disengage, to simply exist until Beaumont inevitably seeks a divorce. But fate, it seems, has a wicked sense of humor. Beaumont, who barely acknowledged her existence before, now seems determined to unravel her resolve, showering her with baffling attention. Eleanor, clinging to the certainty of his impending betrayal, finds herself in a bewildering dance of unwanted affection and the creeping dread that history might not repeat itself...or perhaps, repeat in an even more twisted way.
