Publisher's Synopsis
Lady Daphne Hallworth is ready to celebrate the holidays with her family. But when they accidentally leave her home alone, Daphne uses the time to work on her dream - opening a home for unwed mothers. But her quest isn't problem-free: She's in a battle to win the property for the home against her brother's best friend-turned-enemy, Paul Barstowe, Duke of Southart. And that's not all: someone has stolen her personal diary, which holds secrets that could devastate her family. Daphne has always harbored private feelings for the man her family scorns ... though perhaps striking a bargain with the handsome Duke will solve both their problems?
