Miss Cressida Alby has spent her life as a mere shadow in society, a poor country squire’s daughter with no prospects and even less hope. But nothing could have prepared her for the night she’s put up for auction at The Devil’s Den. Just when she believes all is lost, salvation comes in the form of Benedict Adamson, the Earl of Wakefield—the very man she’s secretly adored from afar.
