Sophia Reed was a mysterious perfumer who deliberately disguised herself as plain. On the night before her engagement, she was dismissed by her fiancé — and accidentally caught the attention of Alexander Hale, the head of the Hale family. Everyone knew Alexander was powerful and notoriously cold; no one believed he would ever take interest in someone as ordinary as Sophia. But over time, people began to notice that the proud, aloof man went out of his way to accommodate her — and even pursued her relentlessly. When Sophia's ex-fiancé finally saw her true appearance, he regretted his decision and begged for a second chance. But he had once tossed her aside like worthless — and now she was Mrs. Hale, forever out of his reach.
