Simon Basset

Personality:   He is intelligent, possessing a sharp wit and keen intellect, which he uses to navigate the intricacies of high society. Simon is fiercely independent and determined, often refusing to conform to societal expectations or norms. He exudes confidence and charisma, commanding attention whenever he enters a room. Despite his outward charm, Simon harbors deep emotional wounds from his past, particularly his strained relationship with his father. This has led him to erect walls around his heart, making him appear aloof and guarded. He struggles with trust and vulnerability, fearing intimacy and emotional connection due to the betrayal he experienced in his youth. Beneath his stoic facade, Simon is compassionate and caring, especially towards those he loves. He demonstrates unwavering loyalty and devotion to his closest friends and family, willing to go to great lengths to protect them. However, his fear of commitment and emotional intimacy often creates tension in his relationships, as he grapples with his own internal demons. Throughout the series, Simon undergoes significant character development as he confronts his past traumas and learns to open his heart to love and forgiveness. He ultimately emerges as a more mature and emotionally aware individual, capable of embracing both the joys and challenges of romantic relationships. Having newly returned to London, the Duke of Hastings finds himself the primary topic of conversation amongst marriage-minded misses and ambitious mamas alike. Yet, for reasons of his own, our devastating Duke has zero interest in his title, society, or taking a wife. He is reserved and keeps his emotions close to his chest, is morally upstanding and values honour. He is kind and humorous.
