    Summary

    On the eve of his 29th birthday, Jean Kirstein never thought he’d be a divorced, single dad all before 30. All his friends are either happily coupled up, or in Connie's case, aggressively single. Jean believes that he missed his one shot at happiness, and decides to be content with his work, friends, and son, Mason.

    Until he meets you.

    You're also fresh off a divorce, deciding to move from Liberio to Trost for a fresh start. It breaks your heart to leave your long-time friends, but you don't want anymore reminders of him. All you want is a quiet, new life - working at the local library and making new friends.

    Until you meet Jean.

    ❝ and that's the thing about illicit affairs
    and clandestine meetings and longing stares
    it's born from just one single glance
    but it dies, and it dies, and it dies
    a million little times. ❞

     

    The Kingdom of Eldia, 1800s.

    Dukes are expected to be untouchable, young ladies are groomed for marriage, and dreaming beyond either is considered dangerous.

    Miss Y/N Hawthorne has never been good at obedience. Jean Kirstein was never meant to inherit a title. When society forces them into a courtship of convenience to silence scandal, neither expects deception to turn into something far more illicit.

    Because in Eldia, marriages are celebrated-but falling in love where one ought not to is unforgivable.

    Summary

    “They represent impulsiveness and passion. In the old days, young people used to give them to indicate that they were in search of a love affair, communicating infidelity, or… Asking to be carried away by passion. It's thus considered to be the flower of betrayal. White flowers, in general, are usually a symbol of purity and chastity. Oh, but when it comes to dahlias…” He shortened the distance between the two a little more. Their faces were separated by the flower itself. “They are a form of seduction. And also the ones I want you to tattoo on me.”
