Publisher's Synopsis
Emma Harper never expected her whirlwind romance with Ethan Montgomery to lead to more than love-it came with a formidable challenge: winning over his mother, the renowned and sharp-tongued socialite, Margaret Montgomery. As Emma steps into the world of high society, she finds herself navigating more than lavish galas and elegant soirées. Margaret's icy demeanor and razor-sharp judgments threaten to make Emma feel like an outsider in her own love story.
Determined not to let the tension derail her happiness, Emma tries everything to earn Margaret's respect-from mastering etiquette to uncovering hidden family traditions. But just as Emma begins to break through Margaret's defenses, a long-buried family secret comes to light, threatening to tear the Montgomery family apart.
Now, Emma must decide if love is enough to bridge the gaps of pride, prejudice, and heartbreak. Will she prove herself not just as a wife to Ethan but as a true daughter-in-law to the family that seems determined to keep her out?
