A bored widow, an incredible dress, and a modiste with a secret.
Jacinda Dexington wants to take her modiste shop to the haut ton, so when a client gives her tickets to the Soho Club's Contrary Gods masquerade ball, she wears the outfit herself. It's a sensation and everyone wants to know who created it. But only one person offers her refreshments… and a little bit more.
Lady Merryam, widowed and bored, only attends the Soho Club's latest ball to help raise funds for her son's orphanage. The last she expects is a one night stand with the mysterious woman wearing 'that' dress. Could spending more time with her be the answer to her ennui?
