Cornelia, who wed the elderly Marquis Meitner at a tender age, ascended to the position of marchioness. Upon her husband’s passing, she believes she has finally gained her freedom—but with no heir to her name, she must relinquish the title and confront the possibility of becoming destitute. Determined to secure her future, Cornelia devises a bold scheme during her husband’s funeral: to charm one of the three alluring men who arrive and produce an heir. Isaac, the innocent commoner studying medicine. Richard, the indulgent poet whose eloquence and skills in the bedroom entice noblewomen. And Theodore, the driven duke who aims to win Cornelia for himself. "I suffered through ten years—only to be instructed to fall into the embrace of another old man?" "Duke Theodore is a young duke. And—his chest is larger than yours." "You should have mentioned that first." As the three men get to know Cornelia, her daring and playful allure captivates them completely. But ultimately— which one of them will choose to stay by her side?
