The Trouble With Grace

She never knew what passion was — until the moment she saw exactly what she couldn't have.
Celeste, Lady Alain, needs a husband, and Lord Quintin Wyntor seems like the perfect solution: a marriage built on mutual respect, independence, and an understanding that he'll never come to her bed. It's the arrangement every practical bachelor in England would envy. What she doesn't expect is to discover his heart already belongs to another man.
When Celeste sees Quinn with Calder — the man he truly loves — something in her shifts. Desire she never thought she'd feel stirs to life, even as she remains certain she never wants to be touched. And when Calder is torn from Quinn's life, leaving him devastated, Quinn turns to Celeste to ease a heartbreak neither of them saw coming. One unguarded moment of passion changes everything, and suddenly marriage isn't just an arrangement — it's the only way to protect her.
Celeste knows Quinn was always meant for Calder. She can't deny it. But she can't deny what she feels either.
A tender, groundbreaking illustrated romance exploring asexuality, queer love, and the families we build when the ones we're given won't have us — from Jenn LeBlanc, Book three in the acclaimed Lords of Time series, and the prequel to The Spare and The Heir.
