Summary
Daphne Bridgerton knows from the start the type of marriage she will have with Simon Basset: a happy, loving, tender marriage...but a marriage without children. She will not ask Simon to break the vow he made to his father on his deathbed, though that means her dreams will not be fulfilled. And for a time, they are blissfully happy, until an evening of too much wine, where Simon forgets his technique to keep her from having children when they make love.
Simon knows there's a chance Daphne could be with child and it's all his fault. He wonders, however, if his vow to his father outweighs the vows he made to his wife, and he wrestles with what it all means to him, distancing himself from his wife in the process. Will they have the happily ever after they want for each other, or will their marriage crumble under the weight of a promise made long ago, before love entered their lives?
