She doesn't belong in his world, but he will do anything to make her stay. 

No one expected London socialite Rose Waverly to be anything more than a pretty face. But when her parents push her to marry a man she does not love, she escapes to New York City and finds herself stranded in an unfamiliar neighborhood. Thankfully, a tall, dark, and handsome stranger comes to her rescue—but Ben isn’t her knight in shining armor, and the suffrage activist is too busy and broken to babysit a society darling. 

Benjamin North has spent three years building a sanctuary for outcast women in Brooklyn Heights and forming a suffrage society. He has neither time nor desire to open his heart, but when Rose bursts into his life—and his apartment—he finds she may be exactly what he’s been seeking all along. As they work together to protect the rights of women in Brooklyn, their desire for each other becomes too intense to ignore. With Rose’s return to England looming and Ben afraid of losing another woman he loves, the fight of their lives will be for each other.
