To escape her abusive, alcoholic stepfather and a life of poverty in the slums, Sheila Godwin, a maid, willingly becomes a stand-in for a count’s daughter. Disguised as nobility, she travels to the freezing northern lands to marry the Duke Alcott, an old lecher known for the mysterious deaths of his previous three wives.

Her plan is simple: poison the duke on their wedding night to avoid suffering the same fate.
But before she reaches the ducal estate, Sheila becomes trapped in a snow cave, and the one who rescues her turns out to be the duke’s second son.
Is it a fateful encounter—or a scheme set in motion long before?
