Summary
She opens her eyes to find Seth, crouching down in front of her, his face creased with worry, his hands hovering just shy of touching her, like he isn’t sure if he has the right to.
"It's over," she says and it comes out like a question.
"Yeah. Yeah, it is," he says and he nods several times, brings his hands to each side of her face and she remembers what she said to him the last time he looked at her like that. She's too powerful and I can't and You should've killed me when you had the chance and I don't forgive you. "It's over, Kate. She's gone."She closes her eyes. She's afraid of what is going to happen when she finally goes to sleep, but for the moment, Seth is here, his hands cradling her face, and he smells like smoke and gunpowder and sweat, and as long as she can focus on him, his presence, she can remember what is real.

Summary
Lady Jemma Simmons, celebrated debutante and fiance of a man she can't bring herself to marry, requires ruination. Mr. Leopold Fitz, self-made Scottish millionaire and general social disgrace, is the perfect man for the job.
It's a flawless plan: they'll be caught together, scandal will ensue, and they'll promptly go their separate ways. What she's forgotten to account for, though, is her fiance's propensity to challenging people to duels, a tenacious wire-haired terrier, his grandmother's shortbread recipe, and the possibility that they may just end up falling in love.
