London, 2019. For Maxim Trevelyan, life so far has been easy. With his good looks, aristocratic connections, and family comfort, he has never really had to work, and has rarely slept alone.

Everything changes when he unexpectedly inherits the family title of nobility, the wealth, and the estate, along with the unprecedented responsibilities that come with it. It is a role for which he is unprepared and in which he struggles desperately to cope.

However, the greatest challenge he faces is to resist the feelings awakened within him by a mysterious girl who has just arrived in England, carrying with her a dangerous and tumultuous past.

Quiet, beautiful, and talented in music, she is charmingly enigmatic and Maxim's desire for her evolves into an unprecedented passion that he does not dare to name.

Who is Alessia Demaci, after all? Can Maxim protect her from the depravity and malice that threaten her? And what will Alessia do when she learns that Maxim also harbors some of his own secrets?

From the heart of London to the wild landscapes of the English countryside and from there to the austere beauty of the Balkans, the Lord takes the reader on a journey full of dangers and uncontrollable passions, keeping them breathless until the last page.
