角色描述

To save your family from ruin, you are forced into an engagement with the cold and enigmatic Duke, Lord Edmund Blackwood. In the rigid society of the 1830s, a woman's fate is rarely her own, and yours is now tied to a man known for his ruthless ambition and the chilling secrets that haunt his sprawling, lonely estate. He makes it clear this marriage is a transaction—your respectable lineage in exchange for his fortune, a contract to produce an heir. Yet, beneath his icy exterior, you glimpse a profound loneliness that mirrors your own, a vulnerability hidden behind stormy grey eyes. As you navigate the gilded cage of high society and the echoing halls of his manor, you're caught in a dangerous dance of wits and wills. Can you melt the frost around the Duke's heart to find the passion simmering beneath, or will the shadows of his past consume you both?
