(COMPLETED) It's 1817 and there is nothing more a woman wants than to marry a rich man and live a life of comfort. But not Nancy Brooks. Having spent half her life helping her mother run her laundry shop and the other half in the local library, Nancy knows what she wants, and it is not a life spent looking for the perfect suitor. Things take a turn when she delivers clothes to one of the schools she always dreamed of attending and ends up saving the day. Lord Andrew Montgomery rules almost every place he sets foot in-one of the perks of being the son of the most powerful duke of the time-and this includes Oxford. Violent and aggressive, he vows to make the life of every student who dares defy him miserable. However, when he targets the new (and first) girl at Oxford, his obsession becomes a little more than just making her life miserable. It began, he would later speculate, with a shout: the simple sound of someone shouting at him-for the first time in his life. It began, she would later speculate, with a catch: the simple movement of strong arms, breaking her fall, catching her midway. But after that, there would come many more events, and ones not too keen on bringing them together. What will they do when a powerful duchess steps in, when it seems every person is working to keep them apart? This is a story of betrayal and love, because they are not so different after all...

First book of the Acklams "A love hidden in memories..." Henry Acklam had long ago abandoned any thoughts of love. There were duties to fulfill-responsibilities to his family-and no room for weakness, no one with whom he could share his deepest feelings. At least, that was what he told himself. Yet, there was Noah, his best friend, whose heart ached for a loving marriage, someone to build a future with. Henry, ever loyal, would help him find the perfect wife, sacrificing his own discomfort to attend balls and events that never truly interested him. Anna Keighley, on the other hand, was in her fourth season, and the search for a husband wasn't a priority for her. Yet, unlike Henry, she did not shy away from the idea of love. Her open heart made Henry question his own convictions. She was the perfect match for Noah-beautiful, graceful, and kind-someone who could light up any room. Still, in the quiet depths of Henry's soul, something lingered, something he couldn't ignore. Love, he had come to believe, resided not in grand gestures, but in the unspoken glances shared between two people. When Anna Keighley looked at him, there was a spark, a quiet intensity, that spoke of a bond neither of them could deny.
