Their parents broke the rules. They'll rewrite them.
From the award-winning author of the American Heiresses series comes a bold new Victorian romance about the woman who controls everything — and the man who makes her want to surrender.
Rose Sterling has never met a problem she couldn't organize into submission. The eldest daughter of the Earl of Clarendon, she's traded ballrooms for factory floors, leveraging her father's name and her mother's American nerve to fight for reform in Parliament. She doesn't need a husband. She needs the Ten Hours Act to pass — and she needs the testimony of one infuriatingly stubborn mill owner to make it happen.
Samuel Holt built his cotton mill from nothing. A former child worker with a scarred hand and a stubborn streak to match, he runs the only factory in Manchester where children learn to read and workers leave before dark. He doesn't need an earl's daughter marching through his mill, rearranging his ledgers, and telling him his best isn't good enough. He especially doesn't need her to be right.
