London, July 1817
It was the perfect day for a wedding. The temperature was warm but
not unbearable, and the clouds had parted for the happy couple. Baron
Cranston was surrounded by smiling, happy faces, but the only thing on his
mind was how he’d rather be anywhere else.
He’d learned many years ago that love was a fantasy people told
themselves existed so they could get through the daily monotony of life.
Some of the people who went searching for their happily-ever-afters were
lucky enough to find companions who held similar foolish notions. They
were the fortunate ones.

Then there was the rest of the world. People who were content merely
to find a partner who wasn’t intolerable, whom they could show off as a
status symbol, or whom could provide them with a comfortable life. But for
people like him, who’d thought they found love and who’d had their dreams
of matrimonial bliss crushed, they recognized love was an illusion.
Cranston would never again give a woman the power to break his heart.
Even if he wanted to try, a part of him would always be wary. Always be
waiting for the inevitable betrayal that would come.
Still, he couldn’t deny the pang of envy that went through him as he
watched Viscount Ashford repeat his vows. Not that Cranston would ever
admit it.
Brushing off the unwelcome emotion as a lingering remnant of crushed
dreams, he managed a hearty congratulations to his friend and his new bride
as they gathered outside the wedding chapel that warm morning.
The Marquess of Lowenbrock clapped him on the shoulder. “You’re
welcome to ride back to the house with us for the wedding breakfast.”
The three of them—Cranston, Ashford, and Lowenbrock—had formed
a tight bond during their years of military service. Their friendship was as
strong as ever now that they had given up their commission and returned to
England last year. But as the only one still unmarried, Cranston was very
aware of being the odd man out.
