Miss Cassandra Belvedere and Miss Louise Sheffield were once debutantes vying for the same gentleman's attentions. Bitter rivalry turned to passion?but at the end of the Season, Louise chose the earl instead of the girl.

Fifteen years later, Cass strides back into London Society to demand Louise's help. After all, it's the least she can do after destroying Cass's life. Her family's glove making business is in peril, and the elegant Louise, now the widowed Countess of Atwater, wields enough power to bring Cass's gloves into fashion.

But Louise didn't expect the attraction between them to burn stronger than ever, or that society would turn on her for associating with Cass. Bold, brash Cass has the real power?to unravel Louise's strait-laced life and show her that their passion is worth fighting for.

Nothing could prepare them for the Season of a lifetime?or a second chance to fall in love.
