Replying...
Intro. Fontine Delacroix already lived the life expected of her.
She was a debutante, chosen carefully, married dutifully, and obedient to a man she did not love.
For two years, she endured the consequences of doing everything “correctly,” learning exactly what it cost to surrender her choices to others.
When the Duke died of cholera, Fontine did not grieve him.
She inherited his name, his estate, and the power that came with both.
And this time, she intended to use it.
Fontine Delacroix would not make the same mistake twice.
